Wanting to borrow a car trailer for a couple of days so i can tow my old zuki up to the beach house. Prefer one around wellington area. Will pay in either cash or booze.

Cheers Mike

I've seen it round. Windows rattling and all!

Is it your pajero with the big doof doof?

They're awesome we trucks. Mate just sold his 89 carbed vitara that he had for 10 years and the only big problem he had was breaking a diff mount on the front one. Picked up a new front diff for $120 so not that bad. Also the carbed ones are abit more reliable than the newer EFI ones like I have ...

My mate just got one and was told to stay as far away from that GDI system. Thats my 2c

I don't know why lifting it would have done much. If the cv shaft is spinning but not the wheel it most likely will be a hub problem. Do you still have the stock auto hubs on? They're known for giving up after a while.

Yea that sounds like the place.

I went down their with the family last year. About 15mins out of reefton there is a public camping spot. Tons of room for a group of 4wds. Can't remember what it's called tho. It's got a nice river running past it

I've heard honda accord ones work with abit of grinding

Same here. Looks great on the zuk

Hey truck fixer, Have you got the pics of the bar you made yet?

Thanks a ton guys... I had the same sort of idea as rokhound just didin't know if it would hold, and now I have the answer.

Have started making rock sliders for the escudo. Just wanted to know how you guys have attached your's. Would prefer a bolt up system as my welding is pretty shabby. Cheers, Mike

Yeah I'm keen to see some pics. Want to put 31's under mine once I get the money.

One way to fix the camber is to file the top bolt holes on your front shocks in (towards the engine) You can get a wheel alingment *spelling but if you want to do it on the cheap thats the way to go.

Fitted extractors today. Im keen for lotsa mud tomorrow Basics, Don't know how the truck will go with no frontal droop

They come stocn with rims that big so I don't see why not.

Was that on a escudo/vitara or do all suzuki alternators work for each other. Forgot to mention what it was off.

Umm I'm real poor at the moment (School student) How does $35 sound? Don't wanna rip you off though.

Yeah might look in to that ae.

My altenators has just crapped out, so I was woundering if anyones got one lying around they wanna sell me.
Cheers, Mike

Got a 2 inch lift in the Escudo aswell as fully rebuilding my cv, chucking some manual hubs on and putting blocks on the top of the shock. Need to make up some for the front though coz there's only about 10mm of droop now. Hopefully be putting the extractors on during the week (Crack exaust manifold ...

Are trucks warrentable without them though?

Yep I'll be there. Don't have work until 5pm.

Had a great day. Little bit scary going up the rutted track, or maybe it just got scary when the hilux had a close call. Thanks to everyone that made it happen.

Still having problems with the clutch... It seems to be okay when I first start but then it craps out again after 10 or so minutes of road driving. Should I try and get those two bigger bolts off so that plate can completely come off or should I just take it to a shop?

I'll be trying to get along... Gotta see if I have work first tho.

Got my new tyres, cleaned the mud out the clutch then stop the new tyres from rubbing Yay now the suzuki is capable-ish.... Lift to come.

Thanks lilpigzuk, helped alot. Undid the two 10mm bolts but couldn't completely get the plate off as there was another, bigger bolt holding it in too. But was enough to get the hose in and give it abit of a clean up.

What exactly is the bell house? and how do I get to it? Bit more of a newbie than I thought
