Hi all,
Have just bought an sj410. Know nothing about them but it was going to be scrapped which seemed a shame, and the owner only wanted scrap value for it.
Used to off road a lot in series landies so thought I would have a play in this.
A couple of quick questions people can maybe help with, it's a 1985 truck but has a 5 speed box and disk brakes on the front, am I right in thinking these must come from a later vehicle?
The front springs are pretty much flat, is this a clue they are shagged or or they fairly flat anyway on the front of these, I know the front has less curve than the rear but being used to landies I dont really know how they should look. Have looked at pictures but it's hard to tell as most are generic pics.
No doubt more questions to come. Thanks in advance for any info........

I'm pretty sure a 1985 had discs as standard and yes I believe your correct that the gearbox has been swapped.
