Owned two in the early 90's. 4 wheeled the hell out of them in Washington state on 30x9.50" mud tires. Awesome little trucks, went everywhere my friends went in their Toyotas.
My dad own a suzuki samurai stock he's was a brown with removable top he was a diesel mechanic rip dad wherever you are great memories love the video man .
Here in India theres an abundance of suzuki samurai aka gypsys and they're long wheel base. So cool looking cars they are. They are so suitable with modifications anything just looks good on them.
My dad is a die hard sumari guy. He has a few of them in the yard. Great for the rough terrain in the islands. No other car exists in his eyes but then jeeps.
I would have to call this the cutest truck they make you could put an old snowmobile engine in one and double the power 😁 but that's what makes them so good - they're small and maneuverable and the short wheelbase keeps you from getting hung up as much, especially if you drop a small lift on it lol it's basically a deluxe street-legal UTV
Right there at about 215 is pretty much what i did that broke my steering gear box. The red samurai is way lower with tires not sticking out and he appears to have better control of the steering. Mine rips the steering wheel out of my hand. Like i said on my other comment im doing some research on wheel backspacing and stuff
The blue samurai has 33x12.5 tires on a 15x8 with 4.5” backspacing. With this combination there is pretty substantial rubbing even after body clearancing
@@jecustoms52 yeah i could imagine, but supposedly you need like 2.5 to 3 inch backspace to get off the springs, but at rhe same time in my opinion the more yor wheels stick out the more trouble you will have steering, especially if you dont have power steering. Either way thanks for replying and I do like your videos keep it up
SUZUKI SHOULD CONTINUE TO BUILD LONG WHEEL BASE SJ10 WITH HIGH STEEL FRAME WITH CANVASS AT THE BACK...IT EASILY CARRIED 10 PEOPLE...AND TOUGH AT BAD ROAD...MY MISTAKE WAS TO SELL IT TO BUY BIGGER PICKUP TRUCK
Thank you, the ride is ok. My factory springs were not completely worn out so I guess the change wasn’t quite as dramatic as some people on the forums experience. I still have to remind myself that it is a leaf sprung solid axle vehicle and it will never be a Cadillac. Definitely satisfied though for the lift and price.
@@jecustoms52 Hello, I am considering the possibility of buying the old man emu kit but I have many doubts and here in my country it is quite expensive to make mistakes. What opinion do you give me? Did you choose normal crossbows or for more weight? Is it too hard to suspend or have it become more comfortable or uncomfortable? I want to go fast on mountain routes Thank you very much for your cooperation, greetings from Spain
I bought an 86 in 88 with the 1.1 L engine . That thing wouldn't haul it's own ass up a steep incline in 4 low, low gear. It'd burn out the clutch long before it'd spin if it had a bite. Loved it, but wasn't fit for any serious off roading
They did a 1.0 litre or 1.3...sj410,sj413,samurai and they also built the Santana versions (I think they were constructed in Spain) I would imagine yours must have had some major issues, I've seen sj410's with no mods apart from meatier tyres out climb all sorts of tricked out off roaders in places like the Brecon beacons in Wales.

I had the exact same. The most fun i've ever driven. Incredible machine off road.
We used to go off roading in these things back in the 90's! Great Memories!
I still own a suzuki samurai 87. They're such reliable cars, especially if you live in a small city.
Man , I loved my 87 longbody .

The current (4th gen) is amazing looking. It would be awesome if they brought it to the States.
@@mrhonda1 yeah man, lot's of American buy used 4th gen jimny here in Indonesia. Then they send it to America. I can see how much they love it
Please don't offend the Suzuki's comparing them to land rovers...they are a different machine and dont deserve to be ranked so lowly lol
Why did suzuki stopped making this cars they are awesome
People said they were unstable. I've seen videos of them being tested for stability and that was a lie. They are stable
Hardy little vehicle......

I think they are the best springs for the money in a spring under axle configuration. I did not get the heavy rated springs.
@@jecustoms52 what do you think about fast driving?
i have hear that it has much body roll and it is shofter than what it should be
I have not seen that to be the case at all. Even with my swaybar removed I never had a moment where the samurai felt unsafe on the road.

these are much better off-road then you`d expect

The reason you see so much extreme shit done with these is people don’t give a shit if they break something lol
off roading is an odd hobby to pick if you're worried about breaking stuff tbf
Wow!
Red and black
What happened to the river in the background?? I see a boat and a dock but no water...how do you disappear a river and why would they do that with the boat still in it???
They lower the water via the dam in the winter.
@@jecustoms52 wow thats wild! So the boat just sits there and the river bed until spring rolls around? It doesn't get damaged that way?
Eh it’s probably not the best for it...

I figured somewhere like that, in in North Georgia and we have similar terrain

I'd like to know what the build is of the ol blue zuk? What engine's in it?
Stock carby 1.3 with an exhaust and a small miss

It is straight out of a header into a 2.5” magnaflow but has many leaks and a misfire lol
Those things are though little panzers

Tiene suspensio helicoidal me parece?
No, de ballestas.

Try searching Suzuki gypsy same but long Indian
what tire and suspension do you have on the red ? looks nice, any modifications needed ?
Old man emu lift, to add it the sway bars need to be removed or modified and longer shocks installed. Tires are 30x9.5 federal couragia m/t
@@jecustoms52 thank you !! how much was the lift and any rubbing from the tires ?
Still the best lightweight jeep around

What rims are on the red Sammy?
I am honestly not sure, they were on it when I got it. They are the same specs as a factory samurai wheel. I added a 1.5” spacer all the way around.
@@jecustoms52 Thanks
And what about the tire size? Tnx!!!
30x9.5
