Technical Discussion - Beginner / Repair / Re: 1983 sj410 rear wheel studs

It's a metric stud, and whilst I don't have the size, it's the same part number (#09119-12003) as used on the Samurai (SJ413) and if all else fails, available from megazip.net.

Technical Discussion - Beginner / Repair / 1983 sj410 rear wheel studs

« Last post by ontario410 on August 26, 2025, 08:12:52 AM »

I found that the previous owner had wedged a carriage bolt in the axle shaft hole to replace a broken stud. I took a stud to the local auto parts store and they have no idea what size it is or where to get it. They keep telling me in imperial but I'm pretty sure it's metric. Any idea of a brand or part number for new studs?  Thanks

Suzuki Samurai (All SJ Platform) 1981-1998 / Re: 83 sj410 wiring diagram

I don't have a wiring diagram for the SJ410, but Suzuki at that point in time was not using headlamp relays, they seem to have started around 1996, I would suggest a visit to Ack's FAQ where you can download the diagrams for the SJ413/Samurai and I'm willing to bet you'll find the light wiring to be identical.

Awesome. Thank you for the resource I will take a look. The shoes were listed as for the vehicle . Got them from Suzukiparts USA. But they do t have the lower openings to accept the bottom springs off the tensioner. Other wise they look identical

You can also take a look at Partsouq.com - I find megazip easier to search, but partsouq will generally have better pricing.

So the drums do not fit as you stated and the shoes while they look the same do not have the elongated holes on the bottom for the bottom springs. I may be able to drill a hole but don't really want to. I found a local guy who will turn the drums for me now I just need to email megazip and see if they have parts. There seem to be alot of variations of the sj410 on there. I might tryand see if I can research their database by chassis number

Technical Discussion - Beginner / Repair / Looking for a 1983 sj410 wiring schematic

Hello.
If anyone has a wiring schematic/diagram for a 1983 sj410 it would be greatly appreciated. The previous owner has made a bird's nest under the dash with speaker wire and a ton of other shoddy stuff. I would like to clean it all up and a diagram would help for identifying wires

Thanks

Okay thank you for the info I will defiantly do that. On another note the Monroe steering damper fits pretty well and the vehicle driving difference is like night and day.

For future questions of this nature, go to megazip.net and use their parts search facility, you can enter your vehicle chassis number or navigate you way through the pages to find what you want.

If the part numbers match, they will interchange, if they are different, they may or may not.
