Re: SJ413 with a G16A bush truck

I did a similar swap and made a bracket to mount the ecu high up under the dash on the passenger side above where the loom comes through the firewall. I didn't waterproof mine. Plenty of guys have used plastic containers for that though.

You're repainting it? I'm guessing that's a full tear down again?!

Either way, what an awesome build and an awesome vehicle!

Re: SJ413 diff swap to Vitara

Some of the vitara diffs are 26 spline and so are a direct fit. But you'll just end up breaking the aluminium housing, so swapping the ring and pinion over is the go.

Re: Rusty the SJ413

One is the temp sender the other should be a temp switch for the AC fan One should short to ground at a certain temp the other should change impedance ( decrease ohms ) as the temperature rises. From memory the vitae's uses a different impedance range to the SJ and most use the SJ sender to get ful...

The plan is to weld some decent gussets from the tube to the chassis rails to stop that from happening.

Phew, this hasn't been updated in a while... It wasn't running right, and I got that sorted. Turns out it was the throttle body after all that. Swapped it out for a good one and away I went.
