Awesome litte rig, got it about 8 months ago and just traded up to a new one now the wife says this one has to go.  Hate to get rid of it, especially after all the work I just put into it but a happy wife is a happy life.


Overall it's in really good shape for a 25+ year old 4X4.

The Good:
- Brand new Trail Tough Lift Kit with New YJ springs - $3,000 installed (go to trailtough.com and take a look at the Wrangler YJ Complete Spring Suspension Kit)
- Lots of other brand new suspension parts added that weren't included in the kit
- Just put a set of BFG 33X10.5X15s
- Went through and rebuild all the doors, and windows so they all open/close rollup/rolldown.
- Paint is in pretty good shape and you can see by the pictures it shines up nice.
- Re-terminated all the electrical connections around the battery
- Recent tune up and oil change
- Seat mounts extended for more leg room
- Came with factory air and all the parts are there but it does not work.
- Roof rack in the first picture is yours if you want it, wanted to get some pics up there with and without.

The Bad:
- two surface rust spots, one where the antenna connects to the body and one on the fender well, both pictured.  Other then that the rest of the body is rust free and solid.

These tin tops are getting harder and harder to find and I'd like this one to go to a good home.  Prefer a local buyer with cash but will take a remote buyer over PayPal and you pay to ship it.  I reserve the right to sell to a local buyer at any point and cancel the auction.

Kei van campers are miracles of space utilization

Tue, Jun 22 2021

In the tight streets of Japan, tiny cars make a lot of sense, particularly the government-restricted kei class of cars. They're especially small with similarly small engines, and besides being easier to maneuver and park, they're also cheaper to own and run. But surely camping in one would be a somewhat cramped, unpleasant experience, right? Think again. YouTuber Tokyo Lens, someone who creates a variety of interesting videos about places, people and things in Japan, went on a camping trip with what seems to be a pop-top Suzuki Every kei van. He details his experience and highlights all the neat features crammed into the little space. It really is remarkable how much there is. We were particularly taken by the nice looking cabinetry, the fact that a person can pretty much fully stretch out in the pop top and that there's actually a microwave and a tiny sink with a water-tank-supplied faucet. Check out the whole video for a look at how much you can do with a small space, as well as some nice shots of the Japanese countryside. Related video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Suzuki Authentics Concept is genuine but drab

Sat, 20 Apr 2013

Looks can certainly be deceiving. Have a glance at this new Suzuki Authentics concept, for example - we were told that this would, essentially, be a proper sedan version of the new SX4, but our folks on the ground in Shanghai tell us it's actually much larger. Like, bigger than the Kizashi. (Hey, remember the Kizashi?)
Regardless, Suzuki says that the Authentics concept previews a C-segment vehicle for the Chinese market. A good move, too, since that segment has the highest volume in the Chinese market. (That's why automakers like Ford, for example, have more than one offering in the class.) If we're honest, the Authentics concept looks a bit "meh" for our tastes - there isn't a whole lot of emotion going on here with the design. Consider it a competitor for that spiffy new Ford Escort that also took the stage here in Shanghai.
We don't have any more details about the Authentics concept at the moment, but considering the fact that Suzuki has officially exited the US market, at least we don't have to worry about this thing showing up on our shores anytime soon.

Drive pits Ariel Nomad against Suzuki bike

Thu, Oct 1 2015

Ariel introduced the Nomad at the beginning of the year, which is basically an Atom converted to sand-rail duty with the addition of features like a composite cage and waterproof cockpit, Hella light bar, and Ohlins suspension with hydraulic bump stops. Evo reviewed it not long after, now Drive has got hold of it and put Steve Sutcliffe at the wheel, sending him to the Sweet Lamb Rally Center in Wales. The Nomad in this guise also gets a winch and BF Goodrich tires with a rear high-mounted spare. The motor is a US-spec, 2.4-liter Honda unit tuned to 240 horsepower and 235 pound-feet of torque, all going to the rear wheels only. The weight is just 1,477 pounds. For kicks, they sent Northern Irish motocrosser Graeme Irwin along to give Sutcliffe a point of reference. We're used to seeing cars battle bikes, and unless it's wet or the race goes to beyond 200 miles per hour the bike almost always takes it. Irwin was on his Suzuki RMZ-450, a bike with about 60 hp, but that, combined with Irwin's skills, was plenty enough to keep Sutcliffe hard at work. You can watch the dust fly in the video above.
