I bought an 88 Suzuki Samurai in October.
Should be a fun off-road truck. Probably all I will do at first is a bunch of armor stuff-gas tank, t-case, rock sliders, cage. Swap to 5.14 gears with mini spool in the rear. Re-do the brakes, new cheap shocks (may even skip this) and get the engine working flawlessly (since getting stranded in the woods would be REALLY bad. I figure if it's something we like I'll get more radical with it. AFAIK Sgarnett and Judd are the only ones here that are remotely interested in something like this. |

QUOTE (tjZ28 @ Jan 1 2006, 18:24) As for Samis, they can be LOTS of fun and will go so much further than you can imagine w/ some basic mods. Here's how I used to wheels (friend's rig, I was full-time spotter/right-hand-man)...
