Title: Getting our first sammy!
Post by: MACHINIST on October 27, 2005, 08:05:49 AM

My freind and I are getting a old sammy for use ion the property that we hunt.We bought it for $60,I havnt seen it yet but my freind says it runs and it drives.What are the first things you guys would do to it.This is going to be a off road only truck so anything goes.I have some 235/75/15 tires that are realy aggresive and I thought that I would put those on it(will they fit?).other than that what should we do.I like the sidekick with the 44's ;D but that is overkill for us.We are looking for cheap but effective.Thanks guys.

slap on the 235's and mini-spool the rear (or weld it) it should go just about anywhere then.

probably a good idea to change all fluids, perhaps a tuneup. Don't want a breakdown from something dumb out in the middle of nowhere.

$60  :o ... wish I could find a deal like that ...

dang no kidding and I thought I was getting a steal with $500
with 235's and locker or spool in the rear should be great fun.
I ran that way for about 6 months or was it less than that I can't really remember.

I got mine for $50   :P

Like mentioned above.....lock the rear and add the 235s

Then when the bug hits ya.......bigger tires...lift.....engine swap (love my VW diesel)

There is no help for this sickness!
