Post by: Ranchosammy88 on January 17, 2012, 07:19:54 PM

i picked my samurai up for 1500, has a gas tank skid, kc's on a home made bumper i think its got a 2.5-3 inch lift on it, 98xxx miles what do you guys think and maybe tire suggestions as it has sat on a farm for 5+ years, oh and i need rear quarter panels or should i just weld in patches (:

I think it looks good!  Aftermarket shackles, how does it handle?  Toss some BFG MTR's on there and start running around.  :)

I see the "Kwik-Trip" fuel pump, Where are you,.... in Wisconsin ???
The  photo looks good, Just for some cheap buck's, Walmart sells some Goodyear Wrangler 31x10.50x15's off roads
for about $130.00 ea. plus all the mounting extras. They are a good starter tire and HAVE A ROAD WARRANTY !!
(I think "Fix a Flat" is included in their deal !)

GOOD LUCK,

thanks haha yeah im in minnesota, i actually just picked up some definity dakota m/t's in 30X9.5 on the stock 15s. just got a cb hooked up also with the pa.

it handles pretty dang good for the shackles and lift components that are on it. it got a new steering stabilizer a month ago too.

now it could use a clutch and flywheel though, slips pretty bad
