They're worth $55 to $100 brand new, depending on how nicely you ask any tyre shop.

Theyre worth what ever someone's willing to pay.

Just in case it gets missed in the upgrade thread.

Can anyone confirm if the plastic tanked late WT radiator is the same as the coily radiator?

My 93 plastic tanked WT has split so it's time for a new one. None of the rad shops I've spoken to have a seperate listing in their books for the 2 different WT rads, but have a seperate coily listing. Is this my rad?

Just want to make sure I only have to order once, and so I don't have fan shroud and bracket issues when I get it.

Is it possible to source replacement springs for the standard sierra Aisin front hubs? If so, where from.

noticed today I have a broken one. Would like to replace the spring without lashing out for an entire hub from a wrecker.

wouldn't be hard,just have to make a manifold.
i would rather run twin 45mm weber side drafts.
one throat per cylinder makes the world of differance.

Hi People,

Thought i might through a random question out. I have a 91 vitara with a rear air locker, about a month i got the locker fitted i brought a sierra with a rear locker also. Due to the sierra the vitara never goes off road anymore. So my question is is it at all possiable to fit the locker from the rear of the Vitara into the front of the Sierra??

Cheers guys

only if you put the entire diff into the sierra!!! but if it was the front vitara diff it might fit

does anyone know what the standard oil pressure is for a sierra?

Can anyone tell me if the alternator from a 2.5 litre suzuki will fit a 1.6 litre engine? This is the reason I ask, I have a 1.6 escudo with dud alternator and saw this for sale:

Sell the rear airlocker out of the vitara to another vitara person. use the money to fund your front locker on the sierra.

Or, save up all your parts because you will want them again some day.

Note: thinking ahead a bit - don't get a sierra front airlocker - get a sierra rear air locker to fit in the front when you install some heavy duty cv joints and chromo axels...

Once the x-fer is removed, are the Trimatics and Aw4 bolt patterns / bearing arangements the same?

Posted: **Fri Jan 23, 2009 8:04 am**

I have 3 SJ413s in varying states. Two of the three I cannot move the transfercase out of high two, is this common? what is causing the problem? and how is it fixed?

Thanks

has anybody used lowering blocks to counter act the overall height of the suspension + wheels

my thought on this was if you run 34 or 35's with longer springs and shackles it will be getting tall but by putting in lowering blocks the suspension still works and the tyres still give you a better diff clearance and entrance and departure angles

is this feasible or not?

But you will loose clearence under the spring plates. Plus blocks are just hack. Nice work on the thinking though.

bump

i read the xfers are interchangable between Trimatic and Aw4s - perhaps that answers my question?

ah true .. I'm not really a fan of blocks (lift, lower or body ) and now that i think of it will result in giving you 3 low spots on a single diff instead of just the pumpkin

oh well it was just a though/idea
