    Re: My Samurai build.

    Glad ot hear everything worked out OK. Those little rigs are lots of fun. Someday mine will run again. But too many projects now as it is.

    That will work. Are you going to build a rack above it for other gear?

    Is that going to be long enough, it looks like a lot of spline hanging out

    Those long splines will come in handy to go with your spring conversion

    I will need to confirm the size of the flange. Mine is an 88 1/2. I understand there were a few changes made then.

    Yes, I have one. But shipping clear across the country would kill you on it.

    Re: My Samurai build.

    Glad you got it. Those bushings and the tranny shifter pin are notorious for wearing out. We had to replace a shifter pin on the Mighty Mite too, and it was a 5?16" bolt, which had broken.

    That is why I like the red white and blue truck. Airplanes are faster.

    It is nice working on those light little divorced cases. Nothing like working on an NP205 :D

    If you have ever had military stuff, like a Mighty Mite or M38, parts were always cosmolined. Good stuff really. You can store gears in any kind of salt or water environment and they will always be...

    That is starting to look really tall. Is your speedo going to be right with the 6.5s on the 34s?

    Re: My Samurai build.

    I don't like full length chains either, even though I have two. But they are not for wheeling. But the shorties do make up for those times you can't get a clevis around something. They also save...

    Re: My Samurai build.

    Thanks. Many people don't like the idea, however it has come in handy many times. Like when I need to pull my pick up nowadays to start it. It has no tow points. Also, if I am going to be a good...

    Your new stuff is similar to what I carry. Although I don't have the fancy air down tool. I just have four that screw on and depress the valve. I use two at once and two that inevitably end up...

    Re: My Samurai build.

    If I have to drive more than a couple of hours, I would prefer the XJ. Or if it is over 100° I am wheeling in the AC. I think that the XJ is a little more capable in large obstacles just from the...

    To me, it is what kind of wheeling you do and how far you have to go to get there.

    I just plain wore my engine out. It was starting to knock, which is why I pulled it out. I found out at a Suzuki stealership that they are not too keen on their machining the cranks or the line...

    Nice additions to the sammy. I snagged a piece of stainless for my rock sliders that I have not mounted yet. Thought I would match the trim - more shinny stuff :D I also did the mag clip thing on...

    The wood dash was stock. I just removed the stock gages and put in Autometer stuff in its place.
