Coilover Conversion on a Kei Truck - will it work?
Переглядів 7 тис.3 роки тому
In this video we do a custom Coilover Conversion on a Daihatsu HiJet. We remove the front strut setup and replace them with adjustable coilovers. Should stiffen the front end and provide more clearance for bigger tires. Link to the coilovers i used on Ebay - www.ebay.com/itm/174613378197?

First test runs of the SCCA Formula AM GSXR 750 Indy Club Racer. It took us a while to custom fabricate the parts to fit this BIG motor into this tiny frame, but we think its totally going to be worth it.

After lots of wiring issues we now have this beast running. Just have to be careful - we know the bus transaxle will never hold up to the power. But we can still have some fun.

Nice work but looks like you will have wicked cv bind when flexed
Engine up there as tune as a Tesla. No ticking just the carb panting like a pitbull
Bad ass.
Badass
I would not trump the japanese engineers,modifying their design. Looking for trouble
Not necessarily. Oftentimes engineering decisions are made by manufacturers just to keep costs down. There might be better solutions, but the solution chosen works best for their target demographic (in this case: farmers, delivery drivers, etc.) at a price point that makes sense for that particular market. This is where the aftermarket and customizers come into play: modifying their vehicle to suit a different or more specific end user’s needs. Though not mentioned in this video, I suspect this little truck rides a lot better now than it did when new.
would this fit a Mitsubishi Pajero Mini perhaps?
Would this work for a 92 minicab
That engine is bigger than my proper micro car. I envy! LOL!
Hey man, gotta thank you on the video, i was having the issue with the lift kit giving me positive camber on my u42t. But i got these in today gonna knock em out and finally have her sittin with better camber
Is that a ysr50 with a 490cc engine?
We’re can u get that style
Happen to remember what wheels tires and hubs you used?
Used 4 lug golf cart wheels and tires. 10" rims with low profile street tires.
What all did you change to get them to fit?
Would this also work to lower the truck? Being its a adjustable coil over? If so how low do you think you could get with this set-up?
Maybe. The shocks are about the same length as the factory ones. And the lower brackets were screwed most of the way down. If you screw them all the way down and take all the preload off the shocks it might drop it some
Would this work on a Suzuki carry?
I mean you could go ghetto and cut the springs
Imagine using the SHO V6 for the DMC-12 DeLorean if it was still in production. Swapping out the bone stock PRV engine would've been a huge step up for the company.
Where did you get those steel wheels from? Been looking lol.
4 wheels parts
もはやYZR
Can you measure how far the bolt holes are on the bottom strut. Thanks
Hey man idk if you got this issue sorted out but they line up pretty darn close. Match up perfectly with my u42t mitsubishi minicab
I have a 94 Mitsubishi Minicab U42 and im trying to do coils up front. Can yoy just buy 2 coilsovers inatead of a set?
Nope have to buy the whole set from what i see on ebay.
Your neighbors must hate you noisy guys
Yes.
Scary fast looked scary slow from here. Use that throttle!
Do you have a web page that tells the steps about this swap? Thanks
Wish they would make these little trucks again. I loved them.
Hey im in the process of building my toyota the rims u have are the type im looking for if you don't mind what size are ur rims and what are ur offset on them thank you
Awesome guy! Found him on a forum and he helped me buy the parts to do this conversion as well as sending me this how-to video. Very rare to find a stranger so helpful! Thanks a million!!
What size tire are you running, 28” or 30”?
Wes, posted the information on the Japanese mini truck forum a year ago, hoping to help with crossover parts to avoid paying the prices for the stock parts. one thing i did different was, on the top plate, I cut the corners off and re drilled all of the holes so I could have the adjustments better aligned to adjust the castor camber in a more true fashion. I also cut a piece of rubber from an old truck inner tube to go in between the top mount making a hole for the dampening adjuster screw. this keeps mud and water from getting under the seat. glad to see somebody did the conversion as the lift kits and the replacement springs are well over the cost of the new struts besides the cost of the stock parts.

How to play russian roulette with 2 wheels
Is it auto?
No its 5 speed.
What is the original bike of that project, it says ysr50 but I can't find a ysr50 with this double headlight. tia
It was a ysr with a custom faring kit. Not sure where it came from as it was on the bike when we bought it.
@@wespiece No problem, thank you for the reply
Did you sell it ??
Yes
@@wespiece just sent an email about this on Craigslist. Is it gone?
Good job!! Is the ride quality better with the new setup?
For sure. No more rubbing when i hit bumps or put my heavy friends in it. My originals were probably worn out anyway.
Nicely done! Any chance of the link to buy these exact coil overs?
www.ebay.com/itm/174613378197? - i added the link to the video description as well
@@wespiece I'm almost ready to order a set of these coilovers for my 93 hijet. Are you still happy with it? Would you do anything differently?
@@danthompson6076 will these work on 2wdrive trucks
Woooow...👍👍👍👍
The Elcar was also known as the Zagato Zele earlier on.
If by earlier on you mean in Europe then you would be correct lol
looks fun as hell
Do you have them on the front too?
Nope just the rear
@@wespiece cool, you got a part number? I can’t seem to find any
put a damn muffler on it, damn no consideration for neighbors its people like you that makes everyone hate us normal riders. just so you know loud does not equal fast.
I welded one on it made zero difference lol
Is this car still around?
what type of headers
They are from summit
0:40 didnt know post got face tattoos removed
Such a beautiful rust box 🙌
Thanks for posting! Fun to stumble across this 8 years later. I was in the red 14 that you were stuck behind in the last few laps. Did you pass me after the video stops? It says you finished in front of me...
I know it's been a while but I'd like to know wheel specs and where you got the wheel converters
Hi, what a good motorcycle, I'm from Mexico and I want to know if you have the service manual since I have one and it doesn't turn on
Sorry i do not have one
Do you know who has the car now? I am trying to find other owners in the US
I sold it to a guy up north. Not sure i still have his contact info. I bought another one here in the dallas area but it needs a rear axle.
@@wespiece mine has a golf cart rear end in it with the fiat ends welded on. Might be something to look at. I just started a group on Facebook so the few of us can compare notes.
Wow i want that
Hey, ive got an 87 ysr50 that im trying to rebuild, and im just curious where you got the 490cc motor from?
yamaha yz490.....
It was difficult for me to tell - was/is that a rear kitchen model with the stove to the left as you walk in and bathroom straight ahead? That's what mine is and I am going to refurbish it - but dread doing it.
Looks like what happens when you put a jet engine in a golf cart.
