 How sad! He went through all that work and he can't afford to keep it right now. I think this needs a good home.

Does he have a Build thread somewhere? I am very tempted, I called but got a voice mail.

pfft.... sammy axles, yuck.
on the plus side the pumpkin color is nice IMHO!!
it is a good deal for the price though, but whats the bullshit about the oil leak comming from the oil pump. prolly pan or rear main or he would have fixed it.

Might also be a front seal.  Those are easy enough to replace.

I can't imagine the gearing is that good, with stock gears and 38" tires.  I wonder if chromemoly front's would hold up to abuse with those tires... 

38's and sami axles!?!? Stock Birfs in there too?   I dont think there would be any DD'ing with that gear set up....maybe in low range.

The set up is cool it just needs some tweaking and beefin up.

You could get it, sell the wheels and tires....have enough for some smaller tires and a doubler, or something close to that maybe yota axles too.

Yeah, sell the tires for 800 and buy a toy axle for 100, Gears 200,

or just buy some 34x9.50's and buy some lockers.

I was about to say the same thing. Why go through all the trouble of doing a straight axle swap, just to use samurai axles, especially with that large of tires. I would have used the toyota pickup or landcruiser axles.

you could always but some 32" wires with 35 series tires and some hydraulics

Hey Jason, I found a Rack and Pinion in my garage i had laying around, it's for a MK1,2,3 GTi, $70 kisses....lol
