Awesome video bud, no annoying music no annoying vlog talking BS just 3 dudes wheeling the shit out of their samurai's

They are great little mountain goats! Like the sticker on my 87's tailgate says- "You can go fast, but I can go anywhere!"

They literally are a mixture of old jeeps and old Land Rover defenders with every good thing off 4x4s they look amazing they are best 4wds ever made in my opinion lol

They are pretty sweet, but best 4x4 ever made stock is the FJ40.

I remember the good old days 4-wheeling the power lines with our crew of Suzukis! Carry on gentlemen, carry on.

Great video, no selfie video talking, barely words. This is cinema.

One thing I learned about vehicle performance. Whether it be speed or off road capability. Lightweight is key. Just avoid windy days. 😄

Love em. I’ve had my 91 a lil over ten years and it’s been all over the mid west. I run 5:1 in t-case, 2.5 “ exhaust into a flow master (sounds great) 3” under axle springs (OME) locker in front, tracker power steering and cutters on rear with 29” swappers. Awesome video fellas!!!

Buying an '88 on Monday. I can't wait to start tinkering with it.

This is an awesome video. It will answer a lot of questions for people not sure about spring over vs. under, tire size, and gearing. It's seams like these are the most common questions out there. This video gives people a visual. Good job!

You guys are hitting some good obstacles for what looks like some fairly mild samurais on 30-33's. Red dude is a really solid driver, blue tin top could use some gearing and lockers for the way he drives and those tires

I have a 88 that has a weber carburetor,black horse racing header with open exhaust, black sky jacker shocks and 2 inch lift.Next year I'm planning on getting a turbo kit for it by Zora I think.I really like the 1.3 engine it's a strongly built engine so I'm not swapping it.

Add a spool to the rear end and you'd save yourself a lot of backing up and hitting obstacles with speed. Locked rears on a Samurai are unstoppable.

There are a few body panels that are a little more expensive to get than others just do to them not having been made in a while. Aftermarket support though is plentiful and if you have any fabrication skills there a ton of routes you could take a build. I say go for it.

What suspension setup do you have? These machines are the best! I have that I use as daily drivers and off-road. Nice video looks like a nice place for wheeling

On the red one, can you drive around town with the 6.5s? What's your top speed? I'm getting the LROR deluxe spoa, new oem springs, and 31in Patagonia m/t tires. I will never drive down the interstate as it will just be a weekend warrior, so I'm thinking of going with the 6.5 tcase gears.

@jecustoms52

Totally fine around town and actually pretty peppy for what it is. I personally wish I would have went with 5.14 gears as I the engine has the power to provide me with a few more mph but I’m running out of rpm if I need to make and interstate jump for a few exits. I never tested out the “top speed” but at around 32-3500rpm it is mid 50s mph.

Where are you guys at.. Looks like a real decent place to ride

Defiantly look under the battery box and in the inner fenders toward the outer lip. Another major place for prominent rust is the rocker panels, if it still has the factory rocker covers they can be slid up slightly and you should be able to lean them back and see if there is any rust.

you will not find a samurai without rust for 2500, you are dreaming if you think you will. unless someones done a full resto job and removed all the rust then any samurai is going to have rust somewhere they are old cars made with metal from a tuna can, just accept it and buy one anyways. look at the passenger and driver floor pans they like to rust out . look around the arches they rust there to.
