Nice exhaust man! Looks very similar to mine except I put Cherry Bomb glass pack and back pressure before rear mufler/resonator. Is that strait flow mufler?

I love that Calmini header too! Great thing!

Here is mine:

Is that strait flow mufler?

Yep; it flows straight through.  Little noiser than an OE muffler, but the sound is good, and it is all stainless so it should last pretty much forever.

Got my mini-spool installed this weekend.  I did a write-up on how to install a locker/mini-spool here:

Also finished installing my stereo...got an alpine 300w amp and anotehr set of 6 1/2's in the rear gate...this thing rocks now!  Time to do some wheeling...

Beautiful welds on the muffler.... haha... but it looks good though.  Experience in a body shop tells me you should have cleaned the rust first then you would have gotten a way nicer weld.  Otherwise the welder will just spit.

I'm assuming you're talking about the post at the top of this page by Dimitros; if that's the case, the pics he posted are of an existing system in his rig after some miles, not newly installed. 
I do agree with you though...rust free welds are solid welds.  My exhaust system was brand new, but I still ground off the mill scale from all the weld joints prior to welding. 

Got a good wheeling trip in...and forgot how much it sucks to wheel without power steering.  So I put in power steering.  Check out the writeup here:

I have had onboard air in EVERY vehicle I own for the last 5 years.  Needed my Samurai to get with the program.  So, here is what I did:

I bought a pair of viair 400c compressors (one for my samurai and one for my Vitara).  I have run 450c's in the last 4 vehicles I installed onborard air in; the compressors are very similar in size...the difference is that the 400c flows about double the air, but only has a 33% duty cycle.  Perfect for filling tires.   
I needed a tank...in the past I have always purchased an air tank from Harbor Freight, cut the handles and feet off, and welded mounting brackets and air fittings on as needed.  In this case, I wanted the air tank under the hood and none of the HF tanks fit the bill.  So, I decided to build one out of 6" sch 40 pipe.  After calling some friends, I scored a killer deal.  I traded some of my homebrew Blackberry Wheat beer for 16' of 304 stainless 6" sch 40 pipe.  It is worth almost $1k new.  I cut a 16" length of pipe, and TIG welded some ends on it, then drilled and tapped a 1/4" NPT fitting.  I bought an assortment of air fittings from HF, and used my stash of electrical supplies from JC Whitney.  I used a 6-bay fuse block and a self-resetting circuit breaker. 
Here are a few pics of the final result:

Spent about 10 hours over the last few days putting the winch in my Samurai; as I was working on it I decided to bend up some tube for a brush guard. 
I cut out the stock crossmember, then extended the frame rails by 4".  Then I added a new crossmember in the front, with a cutout for the winch cable.  It is made out of 3/16" 2x4" rectangle tube.  Then I added a 10ga bottom plate and welded it all the way around, and added a bend in the back to add some rigidity.  I built the brush guard out of 1.5" x .120 tubing.  It simply bolts to the framerails with eight 3/8" bolts.  It came out pretty good; the new frame sticks out roughly the same distance as the stock bumper (although the fairlead adds a few inches to that).  I loaded it up pretty good by dragging my truck across the driveway.  That 9.5xp is an awesome winch!  Quieter and faster than the M8000.   

Nice looking work!

It's amazing how different the SJ's look with the newer grill up front.

Yeah...my suzuki "S" fell off of the grill while I was wheeling.  I am looking for a superman emblem to replace it with. 

I scored a fiberglass hard top from craigslist a few weeks ago; quieter, warmer, dryer, etc.  It took a couple of hours of fabbing some brackets to get it installed, but the result was worth it.

Nice.  These little trucks are so much fun to work on.  I've had my 87 sammy for almost 2 months and have countless hours tinkering and fixing all the little things that a 22 year old truck needs.  I have so many things I plan to do I sometimes have a tough time deciding what to do next.

Lovin every minute of it to

   Yeah they are fun to tinker with, almost therepudic. Beat the livin crap out if it for a few years, thats plenty good fun too! Although, you might change your mind about how much " fun" it is laying under a filthy oil splattered beater. Still better than a good day at work . Pretty clean sewerzuk, as usual.

can you post some pics of the brackets and stuff you did? I bought an 87 with the two piece hardtop the previous owner has the front piece held down with a ratchet strap and the rear held down with turnbuckles. I need to do something different there, and looking at your work I'm sure what you did is top notch.

Sorry I neglected to post the pics...if you're still interested shoot me a PM and I'll email them to you.

LIGHTS!!

Rock lights and 6 watt LED projectors, to be precise.  

I installed them today, along with some Carling Contura switches for the dash.

Decided I needed a switch for the compressor after it turned on in the middle of the night during the fall classic and woke up half the camp.
