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 floorpan 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.
-if you are not mechanically inclined and don't have basic tools, I recommend that you do not buy this truck. 
-included is a box of parts like, harware, stock carb, door hinges, radio bezzle, glove box door, extra shock mounts, bumpstops, and a few other useful spares.

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:    

Suzuki details 2019 Jimny engine and safety specs

Thu, Jul 5 2018

Last month, we were able to publish official images of the upcoming new generation Suzuki Jimny SUV. Now, Suzuki has released a detailed mega-gallery of the boxy 2019 Jimny and some essential information on its powertrain and safety tech. The big news is that the Jimny's introductory engine choice will be bigger than anticipated, as it will be the 1.5-liter, 100-horsepower four-cylinder gasoline engine producing 96 pound-feet of torque. For the time being, no other powertrain options are available, and there's no word yet of a hybrid variant. The offered transmissions are a five-speed manual and a four-speed automatic, and 4WD mode is switchable from a separate gear lever with high and low range. Curb weight is mentioned to be as low as 2400 pounds. As for the Jimny's safety, there's now automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning combined with "Weaving Alert," and also traffic sign detection — certainly high tech for a very small SUV. But it's outside the reach of any road signage where the Jimny is designed to shine, as the image gallery shows with photos of the vehicle off-road. The Jimny's approach angle is 37 degrees, the ramp breakover angle is 28 degrees and the departure angle a nice 49 degrees. The minimum ground clearance is mentioned to be roughly 8.3 inches.

Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki, Yamaha to make swappable motorcycle batteries

Fri, Mar 26 2021

Just as electric cars are becoming ever more common, the alternative propulsion system is starting to make headway in the motorcycle sphere. Companies such as Harley-Davidson and Zero already have electric models on sale, but other established brands are preparing for the electric future. Among them are the four big Japanese bike builders (Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki and Yamaha) who have a plan to improve electric bike adoption, and make their bikes very appealing. The four companies created an organization back in April 2019 for this sort of purpose called the Swappable Battery Consortium for Electric Motorcycles. And the group has now announced that the manufacturers have agreed on the specifications for motorcycle batteries that can be interchanged among each company's motorcycles. So if you have a Suzuki, you can use a Honda battery, or vice versa. This idea presents quite a few interesting possibilities. The manufacturers could sell bikes with or without batteries, since you might already have a battery from your previous bike, or just another one you own, so you wouldn't have to shell out to buy an entirely new battery. If, for whatever reason, you needed a replacement battery, it should be easy to get one, since the same type would support bikes from a variety of manufacturers. The pipe dream of battery swapping stations might even be feasible because of the standardization and support. And having the batteries relatively easy to remove could be good for apartment dwellers, since they might be able to bring a battery inside to charge. The manufacturers haven't said exactly what the specifications are for these interchangeable batteries, nor when they'll be implemented. But we'll be eagerly awaiting more information in the future.
