Are you building a Mud Monster or a Pavement Princess??
If so you can have your own thread in this section.
This section on other websites has led to arguments and contention. People are posting pictures of their pride and joy and therefore CONSTRUCTIVE comments only please!
I know some people link straight to the forum page and therefore miss the activity going on on the front page of the website.
At present we have a couple of SJ restorations going on, so I thought I would link to them here so that you do not miss them and so you can comment on them
If you are in the middle of a restoration or a modification build why not send in the details!
2003 M13 early KAP build.
3" Trailmaster lift with 1.5 Spacers on front
Customised winch bumper and roll cage
235/85R16 Maxxis Bighorns on 16" Rims, 4:1 Rocklobster, Rear ARB locker and on-board air
Corrected arms all-round, rear disks, Recaro seats and harnesses
I love these. I missed out on a completed Samurai here in Ireland not so long ago and I don't think I'll ever get rid of the bug. Might get lucky someday, maybe, if they're not all fossilised by then.
As you know ours is a restoration to factory standard. After 36 years the suspension is still functional but tired so we are looking at replacing it.
Note that this is STANDARD, we are not creating a sky high monster, it is going to be a showroom spec.
I have not played with SJs for many years and when I did we were into lifting etc. What STANDARD shock absorbers does the jury recommend? I can, of course, get Suzuki ones but these tend to be fairly middle of the road quality as little (or no) thought went into the original SJ farm cart suspension.
