Title: IT'S ALIVE
Post by: DRAGGINZUZU on November 16, 2006, 12:17:10 PM: After a month and a 1/2 my samurai has come back from the dead, I got it to run for a min before I shut it off , I dont have the water system on it yet, But heres a little run down of what I had to go through, Started with a 91 2wd lowered sammy, replaced the engine with a 1.6 tracker, swapped in a transfer case and front 4wd axle. 84 wiring harness and carb, intake, gas tank, electric fuel pump, had to do a spoa lift, got some 31x10.50's and 15x10 rims, theres alot more to do to get it in tip-top shape but its starting wooo hooo ;D

Post by: DRAGGINZUZU on December 11, 2007, 08:43:11 PM: Thanks guys! My plans for now are 6.5 :1 tcase and 529 for the axles. It moves pretty good now with the stock stuff but nowhere near its full potential. I might go up to 42's then Ill look into axle upgrades. my plan from the beginning is to keep the body stock. Im from FL and its pretty much a MUD state with a few trails. Im just hoping with the gear upgrade I can keep the tires moving. I'll try not to wait to long for the next pics.
