G'day all from Austrialia,
I've been around for a while & I thought I'd better share my zook with you all.... it's a 1997 j20a 2.0litre widetrack (sport) swb. it was stock with 70,000 kms on it when I picked it up it now has just cracked 100,000 kms & is getting further away from standard.


day one


ended up like this pretty quick



made up diff breathers





rubber flaps to close the gaps after the body lift

aux power

space


fuse block


fuse block mounted


relay bank


switch bank

new exhaust as the tailshaft was hitting the muffler.

needed extra space for long distance touring, ended up with this as a solution.





fixed the known weak point!!







I do a fair bit of sand driving, a cheap bit of insurance is a custom sand flag & modified the spare mount to get a 30" on it!

i think thats the most of it...... until version 2.0 begins!

when does it stop???

That looks very nice.  The 2.0L 2-door hard top vitara always looked the nicest to me, and this one looks great.

Are those 30" tires, or bigger?  Also, did the roof rack basket come with the rails that mount to your roof, or were they already there?

Awesome rig

Ive always wanted something like that

2 door hardtop, lift, 30s, rack, lights

all I would add is a snorkel and a small winch and badda bing


its also REALLY clean for hitting trails like that... look at the engine bay

=D

the basket, racks & track mounts are from "rola" racks. the tracks are mounted onto the roof with massive pop rivets! they are very strong, the weakest part is paper thin panels suzuki use.
