heyy guys, i just went out and got myself a 1993 suzuki sierra and was just wondering about a few things that use might be able to help me with.

first off all the headlights on it don't seem to be working i have checked all the wiring and stuff and im not to sure on what it is, would anyone be able to help??
another thing is that i have 31x10.5x15", and when i turn the wheels they attend to scrub on the inner of the guards. The guy that i got it off told me that it had a 2inch lift on it but im not to sure if it does or not :/

Thanks. hope use will be able to help me.

Suspension lift wont help you clear tyres. You really need bump stop spacers or a body lift combined with some guard work.. What offset are the rims? too little of set will let them hit the spring on full lock.

As for the headlights, does anything turn on? parkers and rear lights?
Check there is power to the switch and work to the lights from there.

alright thanks man, im not to sure on how much offset they have but there isnt that great of deal and the back ones seem to have more offset then the fronts.

Yes all other lights work, it is just the headlights that dont, all parkers and indicators work.

Does high beam work??

Check the globes ... It sounds dumb but you wouldnt beleive how many times I have just changed globes on cars that come imto work cause there is no low beam (one goes and you dont really notice as most roads are lit pretty well on the gold coast, and then the other goes)

Throw up some pics of the car.. Might help people with the other question about the rims/tyres.

Plus we love pics.

Oh and welcome to auszookers.

Thanks for the reply, we have been looking at the wiring to and worked out that there is no power getting to the "drive" or the "stall", well there is power to the "drive" but it has very little, this is with or without the lights turned on. both headlights have the same reaction.

I have been trying to find a service manual and havn't been able to locate one as of yet. Does anyone know where abouts a good place would be to get the manual from?

thanks

unplug both headlight plugs, check to see if you have power on the common terminal (right hand vertical terminal with the plug facing you)

make sure the headlights are unplugged otherwise it will confuse the crap out of you
