Re: Bj40 parts wreaking

hi some more pics would be great please and could you measure between the 2 front door cards just so I can work out if they will fit. I think the 68 is a bit smaller but not sure. how much do you want for the seats if they will fit.

broken sway bar mount

how do you stop breaking sway bar mount brackets on a lifted kzn130 surf? it not huge lift. was like it when i brought it. had a broken one then and i fixed it but now it broken the other side.

can you just drop the chassie mount lugs down or do i need to get longer rods.
