Awesome Tracker you’ve got! Here’s what I have on my 93 Suzuki Samurai 1.6L upgraded everything myself, and I don’t have a shop but love the outdoors off-roading so I build my little Samurai. I currently have 37” tires on and front axle was from an FJ60 9.5” diff 5.29:1 and rear axle from a 1994 FJ80 full float axle for the rear both with lock right locker. The leaf springs comes from an Isuzu Rodeo rear spring for both front and rear extended wheelbase 6” front and rear, 3” body lift, missing link shackles articulate above 14”, Ford shock mount for longer shocks for the front and rear, transmission from a 94 Suzuki Sidekick 4wd cut off transfer case chain and patched with aluminum plate upgrade to 4.24:1 ratio connected to the Samurai 6.5:1 transfer case. Power steering box from a 4runner 2nd generation Toyota high steer and connected to 07 Toyota Prius EPS really smooth turning the 37” tires. Made a custom bumper inner winch 9,500LB winch, onboard air compressor conversion from tracker air condition into air pump. Home made rocks slider and roof racks with LED light great for night run, equip with Midland high frequency long rang radio MTX400 for long distance communication on the trail. Broke other axles before but with current axles from the FJ60 front and FJ80 full float rear it’s bomb proof DANA 60 for now. Crawl ratio should be around 540:1. Next project will be a tracker similarity to yours, I think you got one of the badass small rig of all time. I know these small light weight rig are truly most capable than Jeep if build it right. I have friends with Jeeps and they punch through the trails with lots of horse power only to suffer breakdown. Hope to meet have see your rig sometime later in the future. Stay safe! Thanks
Loved the tracker build, video, and narration! Was like the class was in session and as the owner of two trackers, this knowledge was like gold! Thanks!
I have the 87 Pioneer metric tonne 4 liter 6 Aisen tow pkg trannry trackok dana 44 live up rock crawler trails in the NE washington mountains.waaaay off grid on challenging trail. All 4x4 life up here. Mild mods. 4" lift 33s winch bumper etc. Daily driver all seasons.😅😅
@@thomasq8334 honestly you can’t go wrong with any. I like the body style on the 89-98 a tiny bit more, but 99 and after are much more comfortable on the road. Seems to be more off road mods available for 89-98, but I wouldn’t say it’s a huge difference. The later models have more power (unless you get a 99 2 door)
GREAT VIDEO HARRY!!!! I READ ABOUT THE GEO TRACKER BUILD UP IN PETERSENS FOUR WHEEL AND OFF ROAD MAGAZINE!!!! WOW IT IS SO BAD ASS ON VIDEO!!!! TOTALLY AWSOME ENGIREERING AND FABRICATION SKILLS!!! I LOVE IT!!!! GREAT VIDEO!!! GREAT BUILD!!! THANKS FOR SHARING!!!
I used to watch the rock crawling comps at camp rock, where the King of Hammers is held, this is one of the best crawlers I have ever seen, anyone aside from 100% handmade multi hundred thousand machines
followed your build from Jesse and the lightweight build, sure Jesse wanted you to get the Gen 1 not a gen 2 due to frame width.. love the rig Harry, coming from BC ZUks Canada
Few of my buddy's have trackers they are pretty amazing, caused me to buy my Sammi. You really should do some overlanding videos with smaller vehicles. Great channel 👍
super #awesome #content. the build is neat n clean, so much tought process, really is a #legendry #tracker, #bestbuild #rig #ever.. thank you for shooting the video.. this vide needs atleast 10m views from #community.
Hugely underrated rig and video. I'm a huuuuge fan of this build, I'm all about the odd ball builds. I was really interested to hear about the running gear set up. My build is a super weird one myself so this is a huge inspiration. Great build brother!
Thanks for the Chevy Tracker/Suzuki Vitara love! I agree with you 100%, nothing wrong with Jeeps, just sometimes you want something a bit different! Even though it comes at a cost with aftermarket support, unfortunately.
i had the same vehicle with dual T-cases, married not divorced. Cracked 3 samurai T-cases in half and went with a dana 300 after that. Older now and moved on to diesel cruisers, hard to go back once you switch to diesel :P
At least twice a month for the last 6 years, I've taken a moment to regret ever selling my 95' Tracker. My first car was a 1979 Trans Am (rust bucket) and I didn't even regret selling that as much as my Tracker.
Sweet! Glad to find this channel and immediately subscribe just from your writing in 4WOR! Followed this build in the mag, great to see in action. Next--> Raymond! Everybody loves Raymond! Stoked to find this channel and get in early! Keep thie sub 20 minute vids and collab w/Fred when possible
Where can I find rock sliders for my 2001 Chevy Tracker LT 4WD? I search everywhere and only see them listed for Geos and Vitaras. I see the Vitaras are pretty similar vehicles but I don’t know for sure if the sliders will fit.
I have a Jimny and I never realised how much of a penalty weight is. I use 50% less fuel on than my old Toyota on the same trail by just not carrying 800kg of extra steel.
The parts are about $25k (just the tires and wheels cost $5k alone) but nothing is bolt on so if you are paying for labor you can easily spend another $25k unless you are building it yourself.
I've been trying to figure out how to put spidertrax brakes on my Toyota axle to decide if I want to buy them. Did you or someone else write an article on the axle build that explains how the brakes are mounted?
Sorry Alex we didn't cover that in great detail. The rear was pretty easy because it is semi float, we just put the rotor and hat over the axle shaft and Jesse Haines built caliper mounts for the Wilwood calipers. In the front I am using FJ80 components, Jesse had to do a little machine work on the hubs but bolted the brake hat BEHIND the hub and then again built custom caliper brackets.
@@HarrySituations thanks for responding. Didn't expect FJ80 front brake parts, but I was wondering if the hubs had to be machined. That seems to be a common thing on disc brake upgrades for these axles. Sadly I don't have access to the tools to make custom brackets anymore, but I'm sure I can find someone to help out when I need it
Please sell me the soft top trim molding lol they are expensive and I cant seem to find them in scrapyards where I'm living😭 Love the build by the way!!
Trail Mobile it is 2900 pounds with the spare tire and five gallons of fuel but without passengers or gear. For comparison my LJ and my Toyota both weigh close to 4400 pounds.
The shocks are designed so that they support the weight of the vehicle and also damp the movement, similar to what a monster truck uses. adsshocks.com/product/air-shocks-2-125-inch-8-18-inch-stroke-emulsion-style-ads-racing-shocks/
I mean you could start with anything and apply the same principles, but I haven’t seen any Jeeps (YJs or otherwise) that the Tracker couldn’t easily keep up with.
YJs are leaf spring setups. Relatively crap in terms of suspension articulation compared to link/spring configurations. I have a 96 YJ and a 99 TJ. There's really no comparison.
Just think, if he would have put the huge amount of money this thing cost to buy and build, into an IRA, by the time retirement struck he would have a small fortune. What is this thing going to be worth when he retires?
Sometimes it's about the journey and not the destination. Life is all too short for many that never make it to retirement. Enjoy the journey if you can afford it. BTW, IMO, cat food would taste better in this rig than most others.😊

Thank you. the most important thing I learned from this is the genius idea of getting a 2wd and using a samurai tcase.
That idea was all Jesse Haines!
I just put a Honda S2000 f20c in my samurai. The divorced tcase is wonderful. The gearing completely changed. It’s a beast now 👍
@@AnglingwithAyden that sounds awesome!
