I'v just noticed that my reverse light's are temperamental, they work sometime's an other time's they don't work, i have checked the bulb's an connection's at the reverse bulb's end an it's all fine, I'm hopping it's just a lose terminal to the reverse switch ? Not that i would know where the hell t...

There are steel diff's around, i just got one an it's been converted too the 5.125 ratio. If the people selling them know there value, then there worth there weight in gold man, It may be worth wile ringing all the small wrecker's in your area too inquire about any GV on the yard you could go have a...

Really i'v never seen or heard of him :roll: until i stumbled across this clip on the tube, I think he hilarious! :lol: Accident prone at the best of time's, I like when he giving safety tip on fishing then close's the try door on the pick up an brake's his rod's by slamming the try door up on them ...

Chairmen

Oh as for the diff ratio, there not the same, i think the Grand Vitara may shear the common 4.875 in some of there model's. I'm guessing here, but id put money on the Grand Vitara side gears being 26 spline like your V6..... Like "BlakeJ" said, if you can track down the guy from Te Puke pa...

From what i'v heard, the housing will bolt up, you may need too bend one of the housing mount bracket's to make fit ? But the carrier is another story. You want the carrier or third member from no higher then the 2003 model as the carrier mounts changed after that year, So you should be good with th...

I have 1.5 inch spring spacers for the rear, an 1.25 inch spacers for the front if you keen?

Chairmen

You could always cut a coil or two out of the front springs too help accommodate

Chairmen

Hi there, An welcome Firstly to answer your question, I'm unsure if Grand Vitara spring will fit, if they did you still want to extend your shocks as from my small experence there what help keep your wheels on the ground, in return giving you more traction. I would suggest if your after a bit of che...

Chairmen

Thanks for the good advise guy, :D I'm going too try hunt down the Grand Vitara steel 3rd and housing worth its weight in gold it seems :shock: , As for what i under stand is the housing should bolt straight up to the alloy housing mount's :? :wink: . Unfortunate about the Calmini anvil housing :evi...

Chairmen

Ok correction, after having a look under the truck it's not he diff housing that cracked its the diff member.

Chairmen

I put a crack right the way around the front diff housing today, oil all drained out of crack an on to the track in under a minute.
