Hi! If you have questions you'd better ask here: http://www.uazbuka.ru/
There, you will help boards and parts.
I had a UAZ. In the capable hands of a great machine. Only work there must invest a great deal.
Good luck to you.

If you need, i can try sent lift kit... Some days ago i see two different kits. One for body lift(aprox. 5 cm), another suspension lift, (spacer between spring and frame)
I am thinking to buy a UAZ469 as a just moved to Hungary from the USA. Found one that is a good start, but will need a lot of mod parts... is there a good source of parts for UAZ469's
The engine is a peugeot 2500 diesel non turbo, that was not a factory installation but was installed in the car by the italian uaz seller 'martorelli' the other engine avaiable were a gasoline 2000 fiat twincam with 120
Hp, the 2100 12 valve diesel peugeot, 2100 8 valve diesel peugeot, 2300 8 valve diesel peugeot, the VM 2400 turbo diesel engine and the 2 rarest engine, one was the sofim 2.5 diesel and other was the big 3500 diesel fiat (from om40 truck) engine.
The car is slow on the street (max 70 mph) but engine is good for our offroading, first gear in my gearbox is 4.2, transfer case ratio is 1.96 and axle ratio are 5.12 (my uaz is from
1978 and has got the shortest acle ratio and the non synchronized gearbox wich is really short and strong) and is also a light truck, it weight 1650 kg, 97'' wheelbase, 3800 mm long, 1900 mm wide and height is 2100 mm
Ive got a 2 pieces rollbar, when i'm going to wheel hard i install the front piece of the cage made by me with 2.5 inch dom tube, but there is always the rear part
