| ![]() Hi Team, I am already subscribed to the MM550 restoration of sanjay (4x4 army) which is turning out to be a great restoration, particularly with the roll cage. I would also like to subscribe for this one too. I am very confused between selecting a jeep for myself and have put my selection as CJ/CL340 (Girl Friend) vs MM550 (Wife). Keeping my options opened in the meanwhile, I request for the parts and service manual for both these vehicles. |

I have sent PM for roll cage and registration MH plate. My roll cage work is half done only and for further half I am not getting good fabricator. My previous fabrictor is too busy with his work, his all workers are on leave. He is alone now, so I am searching new fabricator to finish full roll cage work. For Tavera seat - you can fit it directly or you have to do just 5-10 min fabrication work. I have attached image for your reference, in which I have mentioned that you can fix the seat according to your required seat height. Yesterday I was at Kurla Market, looking for front facing seat and that time a New brand Innova came there to ex-change its two single seats into 3 seater, after that vehicle had gone I asked Seatwala about those new seats, he quote me 12k. Seats were new brand, he may give those for 10k. Try your luck for those. If you are looking for only Tavera's seat go directly to Ramesh seatwala at Kurla, he has lot of seats available and he is very much experienced, specially in hood and seats for Gypsy and Jeeps and export them also. Mine seats I got @ 6k which he quoted me 9k on the first visit, then 8k on the second visit and finally when I requested he has given me @ 6k. Cheers !!

David, I recalled your thread, there you have mentioned " real drama starts from here" (when your vehicle was in 6 feet ditch) keeping this in mind I decided to buy my Jeep from Pune auction. | |

| ![]() Gogi bhai i think Bangkok will be a better option, check with the taxi guys they know all the shops. Pick one of the souped up Corolla taxi's for assured guidance ![]() |

I don't have any contacts of 4x4 shops in Bangkok. But I am sure you will get some leads or pointers from fellow bhpians who have already visited there . Cheers Last edited by JeepCaptain : 19th May 2011 at 21:45. Reason: Spelling |
