got me a nice little 4x4 toy
I picked up an 87 samurai special edition recently from someone I do work for occaisionally. I'm the 3rd owner, and its impressive how nice this little truck is for what it was made for.
in all I'd say its a pretty sweet deal for $500, considering it runs and just needed a general tuneup and new battery after sitting in a garage for 4 years. I still need to patch some rust holes and wash/wax it, but overall its not half bad. the interior is even really clean, as I like it, despite being carpet instead of vinyl. |

I was going to say outrigger wheels to prevent tip-overs.

The rollover thing was pure BULLSHIT from consumer reports, I suspect paid for by jeep because the samurai was kicking the wrangler's ASS in sales and dependability. I've taken it fairly quick around some turns recently, it feels pretty damn stable. from where I sit, ZERO body roll. fuckin spring under axle suspension on both ends is cool.
Probably only doing two mods to it. one is a full 2" exhaust with high flow cat and lower restriction muffler for some better power/mileage, and the other, is really just replacing the rocker panels with rock sliders. |
