conversion of G16a into sj413

Does anybody out there know how to get an adapter kit for this conversion? And also, can the power steering change over? If so is it difficult to do? Any other information on this conversion would be much appreciated.
Cheers :wink:

PM Ben, he makes and sells the Kits (Assuming he has some left) Top quality. Have a look through Zuk section should be something in there about conversion.

Yup, I make an adaptor kit to fit a 1600 into a SJ413 or Samurai.

The kit contains all the bits to get the motor bolted into place, and some instructions. Cost is $200.

You can use the Vitara power steering in a 413 / Samurai too. You just need either a wedge mounting plate, or a flat mounting plate and a funky steering shaft angle.

I have made bolt-in adaptor plates in the past to mount a Toyota Cressida power steering box to the chassis.
I went this route as it fits in much nicer, clears the radiator, doesn't require any steering shaft modification, and the boxes are cheap.

Mmmmm.... power steering.

do you have a big supply of those kits Ben or just do batches as you need them?

Ben · Post by **Ben** » Sat May 26, 2007 10:59 pm

I made a decent size batch to make it worthwhile, so usually have plenty in stock. I've just run out at the moment though, and am in the process of making more.

Have you just bought a fleet of Suzuki's or something? :lol:

anyone know of a converson kit for vitaras of anymotor have not been able to find one

A fleet? Hell no, just have a small fleet on my watch list at the moment trying to get a feel for the market before I dive in head first again and waiting until the investment lifeguard has her back turned.

I guess when I get something I will be able to make more decisions but it's nice to have some contingincy plans ready should something come up requiring "extra work".

Since youv'e been running these kits for a while is there anything you would do differently or any additional mods you would recommend?

Heath
