Awesome truck with TONS of time and money put into it. It is a very capable rock crawler and can also be driven on the streets. I would not recommend this truck for long distance freeway use due to the gearing and high center of gravity. Clean title, new plates and tabs, ready to rock. Here's some details:

engine/trans: 
-low mileage 1.6 block with reman head, new timing belt, water pump, headgasket, etc. 
-Sidewinder intake manifold with harley davidson cv carb, new fuel pump and fuel pressure reg.
-new clutch during rebuild, stock t-case, stock 5spd trans. 
-Only a few thousand miles or so on this engine build.

Body/interior: 
-Very clean %99 rust free body with 51k miles, has a few small dents and a few dime sized holes in the driver side floor. all rust has been removed and repainted to stop from spreading
-fender arches have been widened and moved up about an inch to accommodate larger tires. 
-heavy duty rock sliders made of thick 3x3 angle iron have been welded onto the rocker panels. 
-Has a full 6 point roll cage made of some pretty thick 1.5" DOM tubing. 
-safari top with custom build cab divider with window fully encloses the cab for winter driving.(plywood and plexiglass)
-custom square tube bumpers front and rear with winch plate on front. 
-tracker seat swap, they are also lowered 2 inches for tall folks. Besttop seat covers included but not pictured.
-the floors are painted with truck bed liner, no carpet, no radio, heat works great.

Chassis/susp/tires:
-samurai/tracker hybrid axles with 5.13 gears.
-SOA lift with jeep springs in the rear
-newish long travel shocks
-aluminum driveshaft spacers
-panhard bar and custom lowered steering arm
-like new 33x12.5x15 Procomp xterrain tires with spare

Thing that aren't quite finished:
-The carb may need some fine tuning, especially if you are in a different climate. It runs great in 30deg mn weather as is. I've got different sized jets to go with it. 
-exhaust ends at the rear axle, has a quiet muffler and works fine, just might want to plumb it out the side or back.
-some loose wiring in the engine bay that is no longer needed due to carb swap, just haven't removed yet.
-there is a leaking coolant line going to intake manifold, only drips a little.
-plastic bin in the back not included
-if you are not mechanically inclined and don't have basic tools, I recommend that you do not buy this truck. 

If you have any questions about the truck, feel free to give me a call. Also, If you want pictures of a specific part of the truck I can text them to you.

Suzuki Swift gets a motorcycle-inspired wide body for Tokyo Auto Salon

Mon, Jan 6 2020

Tokyo Auto Salon is just around the corner, and companies such as Daihatsu and Mitsubishi have announced a slew of impressive custom cars. Suzuki has also announced its custom lineup, which is a bit humble this year at just three. They range from the wild Suzuki Swift Sport Katana to the mild Hustler Street Base. The Swift is the most impressive of Suzuki's show cars. Its name, and supposedly its looks, are based on the Katana sports bike. We're not sure they have that much in common beyond the silver and red paint job, but that's all right because this Swift still looks excellent. It features aggressive fender flares and a reworked front fascia. Bigger, wider wheels fit underneath those flares, and it has side-exit exhaust to cap off the extreme design. Next up is the Suzuki Jimny Sierra Marine Edition. Suzuki started with the wider Jimny Sierra model and fitted it with equipment for a day in and around the water. It has storage for fishing rods on either side and an interior covered in wetsuit material. The roof has been raised for extra interior space. The exterior also gets a garnish of visual upgrades such as custom wheels, chrome trim, paint scheme, auxiliary lights and tow rings. The third and final custom vehicle is the Hustler Street Base. It's fairly basic with a matte gray paint scheme, a few decals, and an upgraded audio system inside with some flashy lighting. Apparently it's designed for hip young people who live in the city and might be interested in extreme sports and an active lifestyle. Related Video:    

Watch Indian cars fail Global NCAP crash tests miserably

Tue, May 17 2016

It's taken for granted that cars currently for sale in Western countries pass crash tests, and often merit four- or five-star safety ratings in NCAP or NHTSA tests. This is why these scores attained by Indian market cars are so galling: seven vehicles currently sold in India got zero stars in any category – a horrifying clean sweep. It is understandable that cars sold in a developing market are cheap and equipment levels are low, but acceptable crash safety is something that should be considered essential in all markets. The cars tested in the Global New Car Assessment Programme were Hyundai's Eon, Maruti Suzuki's Eeco and Celerio models, Mahindra's Scorpio SUV and several Renault Kwid models. All of the cars were manufactured in India for the Indian market, and the Mahindra Scorpio was the sole larger car. It was first introduced in 2002, with updates made in 2006 and 2014. Mahindra has long planned to export its vehicles to the United States, with the likeliest version a pickup variant of the Scorpio. Renault's Kwid crossover was tested in three versions. Initially, the Kwid was tested with and without airbags, and on both accounts it scored zero stars in adult occupant protection and two stars in child occupant protection. Renault strengthened the bodyshell and the crash tests showed the updated Kwid's structure did not collapse; still, it was rated unstable and that it couldn't withstand further stress. On closer inspection, the structural reinforcements were found to be done only on the driver's side of the passenger cell. Renault has confirmed more safety updates are on their way. "We welcome Renault's efforts to correct this and we look forward to testing another improved version with airbags. Renault has a strong record of achievement in safety in Europe and it should offer the same commitment to its customers in India", says Global NCAP's David Ward. "Global NCAP strongly believes that no manufacturer anywhere in the world should be developing new models that are so clearly sub-standard. Car makers must ensure that their new models pass the United Nations' minimum crash test regulations, and support use of an airbag." The airbag-equipped Kwid was the only model of the seven cars tested that was fitted with one. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.

2014 Suzuki V-Strom 1000 ABS

Tue, 11 Nov 2014

Motorcycle trends come and go like fashion, and the latest two-wheeled style du jour is the adventure bike. Chunky and rugged, these (sometimes) dirt-ready rides often take cues from the massive, Armageddon-ready rigs you'd find on the Dakar Rally. In their most neutered form, they can start as street bikes and adapt for adventure duty by adding taller suspension setups, removable saddlebags, bigger fuel tanks, and better wind protection.
Lying smack in the middle of that dirt/road matrix (and leaning toward the tarmac side) is the 2014 Suzuki V-Strom 1000 ABS. A venerable fixture in the adventure scene, it developed a primarily urban following after the model bowed in 2004, though it's also proved itself worthy of tackling trails and light offroad scenarios. For automotive folks not steeped in the vagaries of the motorcycle world, the V-Strom is the two-wheeled equivalent of the late, great Mitsubishi Montero: capable, no-nonsense, and a bit of an unsung hero in the face of more glamorous offroaders like the Land Rover LR4 and the Mercedes-Benz Geländewagen.
