As a American praying mantis that just purchased one of your Japanese mini trucks I just want to say thank you Japanese people for making a cool little truck 🙌🤝😀
@yvesstocky9936 - one of the Mitsubishi minicab trucks with the fold down bed. I think I posted video of it on my RUclips channel. I need to get engine work done on it. Had a guy do head gasket for me and never again taking it to him ever. Still leaking into cylinder a little bit. Thought about trying that pour in gasket fix just for the heck lol.
Hollister! Nice..spent many days there having a blast....i do miss it! Had 87 4runner locked front and back 1uz 33"....nothing would stop that bad boy.. You guys take care..
Nice HiJet! Too bad California wont allow those on the street. Haven’t been to Hollister in years but its cool to see a Kei truck out there. Its so dry!! Everything was green when I was there in 2016
@@velonaut4913 California doesn’t have the 25 year rule like everywhere else. That law was frozen at the 1975 model year during Schwarzenegger’s term in office. If you see them on the street in CA they likely have out of state plates.
Should have never sold my Zuk as that thing was a mountain goat....... but living in Phoenix Metro a vehicle with no air conditioning here makes it useless in the summer....The ZJ i have now is not bad but it has ac.... I like that little truck you show
@10:55, i would shit my pants off. That thing wants to flip over if not for the spare tire at the bed. Need to add more weight on it. Also, kudos to the driver for nailing the correct line.
They truly are pretty amazing. Mine has the 1.6L and 5-speed from a later Sidekick, Toyota axles, lockers, 5.13s, YJ springs, and 33”s. It’ll 100% climb hard enough to turn itself over, and it’s narrow enough to drive between obstacles the big trucks create (deep mud holes/ruts, etc.). They’re getting hard to find, I might have to go TJ with 35”s next when it’s no good anymore. Or maybe I’ll just TDI swap the Sammie…
The Kei is light as a feather 1,800 compared to the Tacos 2,600. The Taco had the wrong tires and a driver that doesn't know how to drive on wet rock. Don't let off the gas till your over the obstacle. He came to a complete stop just before he crested. Rookie.
If you can find info on the KEI truck please reply. I just did a 2 inch lift and unless I make my own lower control arm I have no other idea on how to eliminate the positive camber. Also the plumbers crack at 6:15 had me rolling.
Got my 2" lift and new tires on, adjusted camber, etc and now the poor thing hops down the road like a Bunny Wabbit. Not like just when I hit a bump, it's consistently hopping starting at around 25 kph. New 300# springs on the way but it doesn't seam it will help as I didn't feel the hop on the lift, only once I put on the tires. Any ideas?
The Suzuki showed the original WW2 design was already perfect. It is just today everyone is just being so greedy it is getting too wide, tall, heavy, thirsty and all together losing practicality. Including being able to be deployed and go through narrow trails Easily carried by transport vehicles, more vehicles in one transport vehicle. Ease of use without needing to read a 1000 page manual or pdf on how to change the oil and get it into maintenance mode, right temp and navigate the menu's to electronically read the oil level etc.
I know you mentioned it was a 2" lift. Do you have a link to where yiu got to? And how was the positive camber on it? We're you able to get it straighted out?

Tyres make SO much difference in those conditions, but the KEI truck makes it look relatively easy.
Knew the Suzuki was a champ but that Daihatsu is a gem on them trails.
This is the FUTURE. i Love it.
Must be crazy sitting over the front axle in that Kei going down a hill lol
It’s actually awesome lol

Suzuki samurai all day
All day everyday Bradda.
Chee
Always under rated but it was made for this
Que lástima que DAIHATSU no está más en ARGENTINA , fué una marca muy querida y tremendamente nobles .
Acá en Uruguay hasta ahora andan los deltas que muchos repartidores siguen dándoles duro día y noche, maquinones
- The Runts RULE!
- Tire selection is key
- Tire pressure is critical
Looks like everyone had fun, and a great place to go wheelin'!
Suzuki samurai is an offroad beast
That thing is basically a quad at this point 😂

Great video 👍👍👍

Off the lot and straight to wheelin off road the samurai with stock dinky town tires will go places that'd make your head spin

Kei truck
だからKT-R
GT-Rに似せて！！
考えた人すごい！！
Looks like sazuki is the best.
Apart from the wheels and tyres, has that Kei truck had any other mechanical modifactions?
That little truck would be so fun with lockers
Many have factory rear diff lock.
Some have high/ low box with rear diff and 4wd, other versions only have high gear box and 4wd
looks like fun! I would need a lift before I try this.
This looks like more fun than 4-wheeling with a $100k rig
The order I would want these 3,
1. Sam
2. Kei
Yeah, I'm done.
I Just got me one ☝️ of those mini trucks 😎. I’m the talk of the town now son 😎🤓🙌🤝 lol
Gonna pimp mine out with lift kit and bigger tires and then put a super chip in it 😎😅
Needless to say I got one and been waiting on a so called mechanic to get the head gasket replaced. I’m fookin pissed
My favorite part of these videos will always be the impressed JP bros in the comments

I wish I would’ve brought a kei truck before wasting 30 grand on a Ford ranger
I don't think they're street legal everywhere.
It's wonderful ♪
What size tyres are you using on the Daihatsu please, I have a truck here in the uk and id that a jeep bumper the suzuki is using.
Dude that samurai did great
6:15 You ain't never seen a TRD, hey man look out for that crack 😏
I have a mini truck, just a quick question, what wheels and tyres have you got on it? I am having a bit of trouble , thanks, max
Mini truck is my friends
ATV tires and unknown rims
Need wheel adapters 1 inch thick
Wow Wow KEI Good ☺️👍👍👍💪💪💪
Kei Truck micro tire ground pressure is insane.
Poor Tacoma just isn't a match for the mini.
Why did they stop making them? Damn!
Love the voice
If you can find info on the KEI truck please reply. I just did a 2 inch lift and unless I make my own lower control arm I have no other idea on how to eliminate the positive camber.
Also the plumbers crack at 6:15 had me rolling.
I'm not sure about kei trucks, but i know for subarus we had to get 2 camber bolts in order to fix the camber on each strut.
The most fun looks like the kei truck.
It would have been fair if every vehicle had the same tire
Got my 2" lift and new tires on, adjusted camber, etc and now the poor thing hops down the road like a Bunny Wabbit.

Lower the pressure in the tire , put mine to 8psi and helped
@@groundedb2200 Will do.
Oh, by the way the 300# springs are WAAAAAY too stiff! going back to stock today. Will update.
Went back to stock springs with the new struts and put the spacer lifts back on. It's 80% better.
Whats with the Chipmunk voice..Nice Daihatsu Pickup ..
I'm sure the Kei Truck does even better when it's loaded

2.5" lift kit - Front

1” spacer or adapter

Not sure it’s not my truck I drive the samurai
I think the lift kit comes with longer arma
Funny to see a $4k hijet with mud tires climb the steep concrete climb when a $60k Jeep gladiator couldn’t lmao
Like to know where the acty tires were purchased
What lift and tires?
daihatsu gots a
2” I think and 27” side by side tires
N special wheels with adapters
it's gotta be those tires!!
The Daihatsu is crying out for a set of diff-locks.
It has a rear e lock
They make lsd for front and rear now
stock engine?
Where can I find a place like this to go in south east ga
what size tires on the kei truck?

Tyre test. Thay should all hvae same rubber under with same pressure.
Little bit of weight would go a long way in the back of that kei
How can o e add it tho?
Do these trucks not have lockers??
The samurai is the only open diffs
The KEI truck rear e locker
Rubicon and trd both front n rear lock

@@depzoff-road8394 thank you.
Wow
All of your performances would have been a piece of cake if you just drop some air out of the tires....
Japanese don't use it for off-road use like we do in america. It's more like a farm truck.
Seems everyone in this video is running high tire pressure.
