As far as I know Jeff was also selling his spacers through Low Range Off Road, you could try them.

Suzuki 4x4 Forum / 88-98 lift kit
« Last post by pidder on April 23, 2024, 08:01:46 PM »
Just a quick question.  I have bought several of Jeff Hoepkers lift kits off of ebay in the past and am looking for another.  I cant seem to find his listing on ebay anymore.  Does anyone know if he is still making them?  Or have a contact for him. Tried searching and tried messaging through ebay but no result yet.  Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

The High Altitude Compensator or the fifth gear switch - check your post over at Suzuki Forum.

Suzuki Samurai (All SJ Platform) 1981-1998 / What makes the VSV actuate?
« Last post by DesertDog on April 20, 2024, 04:32:20 PM »
I have a 1987 Samurai and have recently had the engine rebuilt. I went to get it smogged and it failed at the upper speed test. Troubleshooting has found the VSV solenoid (Blue/Green wire one not the Blue/Yellow wire) never opens. I checked and the +12V is on the Black/White wire but the 0V never activates on the Blue/Green wire. I understands this comes from the Electronic Control Module (ECM) but before I invest the time and money finding a new one I was wondering what tells the ECM to turn it on that might not be happening?

Any help is appreciated!

What are ADL's?

The problem is most likely the combination switch, and after that wiring - maybe find a good auto-electrician

Is that 2000 the year or the engine size?

What "analyzer" are you referring to ?  A code reader?  Electrical system faults generally don't set codes, at least, not on cars this old, and it's probably not seeing a BCM because the car doesn't have one.  A model year 2000 would not have had a BCM.

Find yourself a good auto-electrician and have the charge system checked.

 I did not find this one in a search.

2001 GV, 285k on the clock, new timing stuff at 185k, 2.5" magnaflow catback, 29 inch snow tires, with strange (to me) problem.  Been mine 20+ years.

WHen I initiate bright flash by pulling on stalk, all good.  BUT with push forward, it defaults to ADL's, with no high beams or lows.  Driving my canyon hard at night with just low beams

Ideas? 

Thx, Pat

2000 basic GV (cheap interior) with all new batt, alt, and starter, all of which have been tested and operate correctly.  Idiot light persists.

ANalyzer found reason for ABS light (left front wheel sensor), but found no codes set for electrical system.  OTOH, it did not recognize a BCM, so, ...

Salvage title, 185k on clock.

Ideas?  Need to sell but no one wants a charging system lite.

Thx, Pat

I've never seen one actually finished but I have seen a couple projects started along this path.

I wonder why...

Yeah, give it a shot. I've never seen one actually finished but I have seen a couple projects started along this path.
