Title: Best Samurai Suspension Out There?
Post by: live24wheel on April 26, 2006, 06:21:47 PM
I am looking for a company that makes any kind of a kit for the samurai that is all out balls to the wall. Im talking about something along the lines of linking the axles. Anyone out there other than custom fabricationt that makes anything like that?

You need to shop around in the fabricator sites, like trail tough, rocky road, calmini etc....you will find links in this site.

That's awsome, to bad the axles are probably worth more than the rest of the truck ;D
WISH I HAD A PAIR OF UNIMOGS, THOSE THINGS ARE COOL!!!!!!!!!!!

If you are looking for a pure trail performance suspension I would either look at the Coil kit from Rocky Road or the 1/4 elliptic rear/coil front setup from Spidertrax. i think they rule the roost.
Here is a pic of my rig crossing Golder Crack. I run the Rocky Road Coil kit on toyota Axles.
Unfortunately, the pics of the Spidertrax suspension aren't working on their website :-\.

I have the RRO coil set up and relly like it but you do have to tweek it a bit. I had 14" by 150 pound springs at first, rode relly nice but way to tippy off camber. Went to 14" 175, ride a little stiffer and lots better off camber. I now have 12" 200 pounders on order and hope this will make me a little more stable. The flex is great ( 1400 on a 25deg ramp) but there are times it hurts you. Depends what your looking for? I would put it in again but might look at the 1/4 kit from Spidertrax for the rear.. Good luck..
