Man do I miss my Samurais. I put Toyota mini truck axles, Aussie Lockers, Jeep Wrangler leaf springs, 33s with 6.4 to 1 tcase gears and it was unstoppable by most obstacles. The TRUE Jeep eater!! Dang it!!!! I want to build one again, but the axles are SOOOOO pricey these days. Anything over 33s is just cheating in my humble opinion. Gotta learn to drive and pick the line. Many trails have been ruined by anything bigger. Now you have to travel further to find a challenging trail for a cheap price.
That’s exactly what I’ll be doing to mine soon. You can find Toyota axles for a decent price you just have to keep looking. Mine will have Toyota axles yj leaf springs and 35s soon
That looked like fun, everyone was doing well with those obstacles 😅
Yeah and the samurai was able to hold its own on 33s 😅
@@Drewsoffroadgarage it sure did!
