Try Ack's FAQ and if that doesn't pan out, repost this question at www.suzuki-forums.com (http://www.suzuki-forums.com), there's a guy there with a link, he's a member here too, but he moderates over there so he's on there more frequently.

That guy was asking for fsm info on a 99 tracker. Would they be the same?

They will be close but not 100% identical - the Tracker has some cosmetic differences, grille, head lights and so on, the front brakes are smaller, and I've discovered that wiring and wire colors may also be different.

Still - a Vitara FSM will be closer to the truth than a Chiltons or Haynes - and better yet, if it's free.

Yes I am very familiar with fsm's. Ive tried to have one for every vehicle Ive owned since 1993. I even have one for a 1966 cadillac that I used to have it is hardback. I used to be an automotive technician, certified in the state of Michigan, in Engines, driveability, and brakes. But I went to college and am now a Mechanical Engineer. Suzukis are different than most vehicles Ive come across. Most of what I used to work on were American vehicles.
