Hello all,
Just joined the board, have recently bought a non-going mchine from country Vic so I thought I wld give everyone a peek
All parts donations and advice welcome
So the story begins
1. The car was bought as non-goer and trailered back. The reason why I made the purchase is because of the totally rust free body and chassis. The Nippon god has smiled on this unit!!

2. While the engine was a non runner, it was all good inside, with bores, cams, head all OK
3. The rest is pretty much downhill
a. the transfer box has 2 stuffed bearings and mid shaft
b. all the axle bearings are gone
c. one of the diff bearings is gone
d. all the brakes are RS
... keep watching for fots

I’d rather play with drive train than a stuffed body!!! Sounds like an absolute gem.. welcome to AZ, can’t wait to see your new steed

Try a different browser perhaps? I'm using Chrome on Mac and I'm seeing them.

Technology is a fickle beast

try pasting the URL into your browser and that should work. It's just a link to a picture on flickr

and is there an expert on the board who knows where to get parts for the steering link arm aka steering relay?
its parts #23-26 on the diagram

[sideways]

Is it a stockman or early LJ80? Stockmans have a different relay link bushings. People have pressed bearings in to replace the bushings.

Suzuki still sell the large majority of serviceable parts on LJs. You can chase a local dealer price but megazip has been much cheaper for me, quicker too. All parts from megazip are genuine.

and of course sweet f.a for the steering box parts
does anyone know if the internals are interchangable with the sj140 box?
i need a full set of bearings, seals and of course the worm shaft

[Gwagensteve]

Steering boxes are different and have no interchangeable or replaceable service parts.

[Aircobra101]

Megazip only shows one type of steering link shaft
