I will for sure do a rebuild on the Knuckles... As for tire pressure it has alot less roll resistance |removethispart||removethispart|@ 32 it is a tad rough but I don't mind at least for now. As for wearing out the tires , I figure the Samurai has no weight to speak of anyway so the tires should last a loooong time. But you are correct and I do thank you for your input     By the way...how much would you guess a '87 Samurai "Tin Top" would weigh?

Curb weight on a stock SJ-413 VB model was listed at 2073 lb's according to the factory documentation.  44 lbs heavier then the soft top model and almost 200lbs more the SJ-410 soft top 

Thanks....thats good info to have...

One of these days I need to get around to scanning the SJ-410 documentation I picked up on E-Bay.  There is even a dealers only document that discusses what aspects you try to sell to different type of people and comparisons to use to compare it to other 4x4 vehicles of the day.

It has a lot tighter turning radius then the FJ40, thus making it better for driving around town.  And the light weight means good mileage and it won't get stuck.
