Another Suzuki to the cause

Post by Helga410 »

Hi All,
I joined up a few weeks ago on reccomendation from a good mate of mine UBZ. I have got an 84 SJ410V that I have been sloowly working on over the past few years. It started life as my daily driver and a hard top till a tyre blew out and rolled me, Now she's a "soft top with a six point roll cage.
I aim to get her road legal again and use as a trip truck and prove that a 1000cc truck can (hopefully) play with the big trucks.
Thankyou to the chaps who help me with my fuel pump problem awile back that my mate posted up for me :) it was very much appreciated and I learnt a lot from it. It was working with in 5 min !
I hope I can contribute something constructive and worthwile also to Suzuki and wider 4wd community :D .
As soon as I figure it out I will put a couple of picks on "show us your ZUK"!
84 SJ410V, 1000cc, OME 2" spring kit , 2" extended Shackles, 1&3/4 "extractors and 15" coby ,rear lockrite, 29" SATs
This is not the greatest truck in the world..this is a tribute!

no you just repower your 410 like I did and kick cruiser arses :mrgreen:
Welcome, and good choice of vehicle. I lasted about 2 - 3 years with the 1L powerplant - never failed me I just wanted more :wink: get a rockhopper transfer box, setr of 30 or 31" tyres and you will go a heap of places that will suprise many.
