Glad that you are so happy with your new Zook.
^ I'm with you on the point of exploring versus swimming in bog holes ... Probably even more important on my list than yours ... :iconwink:

i know this isnt a suzuki forum, but hey we all love off roading and seeming it isn't a toyota i thought i would share :iconwink:
so far ive covered just over 1000ks and its going great. have to change the all the gear oils just to make sure there fresh, and a set of plugs (guessing there the original ones) other then that shes gold.
In terms of mods things have been moving quickly. I have added tank guard, transfer guard, rear shock mount guard and radius arm mount guards.
added a ARB bullbar (not happy with fitment) a 30" ironman LED light bar (have to sort out alignment once i get the lift in.
today i ordered my lift which is 2" lift with pro-comp es3000 shocks and pro-comp steering damper
also ordered my tyres 215/75r15 hankook MT's. could have gone bigger but i didn't want to effect the gearing too much.
looking at auto lockers currently as there alot cheaper then air lockers. but my mind isn't made up. still have to sort out draws and roof racks and winch. i'm heading up to fraser island for my honeymoon at the end of the year so it has to be fully set up by then.
any way pics!

The underbody was really good quality and great firmest. Only cost me 600 delivered to my door too. The light is awesome I'm very happy I got one over 2 spot lights

Looks good mate, keep the mods going!
They are good little cars, go most places.
You won't even need a locker unless your going hardcore. Just don't roll it, I know if I had one within the first 6 months it would be rolled. haha

it has no rear LSD so thats why i want a locker. still undecided this stage but i want to make it very capable so im less likely to get stuck when im out by self.
