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 Vitara shows its face ahead of Paris debut

Thu, 28 Aug 2014

The death of Suzuki's American automotive operations can be chalked up to many, many things. One thing it cannot be blamed on, however, is the arguable goodness of its products. The company's criminally underrated offerings included the Kizashi sedan, the SX4 compact and your author's personal favorite, the Grand Vitara.
The GV rode on a radically different version of General Motors' Theta platform, which underpins the American manufacturer's current crop of crossovers, like the Chevrolet Equinox. What made the Grand Vitara special, though, was that it wasn't just another run-of-the-mill CUV. Buying the cheapest model meant living with rear-wheel drive rather than the Theta's typical front drive. Spend a bit of money, though, and you'd end up with an honest-to-goodness off-roader, sporting selectable four-wheel drive complete with low-range gearbox. It also comfortably sat five, was reasonably efficient and was quite handsome. We aren't totally sure how it turned into this.
This, of course, being the new Vitara (it replaces the Escudo, the vehicle Americans know as the Grand Vitara), and it will make its global debut at October's Paris Motor Show, which has ditched its four-wheel-drive system for a part-time all-wheel-drive system called Allgrip.

Autoblog Minute: VW Q3 financial woes, 2015 Tokyo Motor Show

Fri, Oct 30 2015

Consumer Reports pulls its Tesla recommendation, the U.S. Copyright Office offers a ruling affecting car owners, VW gets hit hard with third-quarter losses, and lots of exciting news from Tokyo. Autoblog senior editor Greg Migliore reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Consumer Reports pulls its Tesla recommendation, the U.S. copyright office offers a ruling that affects car owners and gear heads, VW gets hit hard with third-quarter losses, and lots of exciting news from Tokyo. I'm senior editor Greg Migliore and this is your Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. After a week away testing vehicles for Autoblog's Tech of the Year award, we're back in the office to recap the week in automotive news. [00:00:30] One of the things you might have missed was Consumer Reports pulling its recommendation of Tesla's Model S sedan. The blemish for Tesla comes after a tally of reviews from customer surveys. The most common problem areas for the Model S as cited by survey takers included: the drivetrain, power equipment, charging equipment, body and sunroof squeaks, rattles, and leaks. So lots of stuff. Though they could not ignore a score of "worse-than-average", Consumer Reports still [00:01:00] highlighted the fact that the Model S was "the best performing car" they've ever tested. Telsa CEO Elon Musk took to social media to defend his sedans saying: "Consumer Reports reliability survey includes a lot of early production cars. Already addressed in new cars." And, "Tesla gets top rating of any company in service. Most important, CR says 97% of owners expect their next car to be a Tesla (the acid test)." In Financial news, Volkswagen took a hit and reported an operating loss of [00:01:30] $3.84 billion. This is the first such loss for VW in 15 years. Toyota reclaimed the crown as the world's largest automaker as well. It's important that it's not all doom and gloom for VW though in Q3. Sales revenues were up and the company's automotive division boasts $30 billion dollars in liquid assets. It's a sizable war chest that will no doubt come in handy, as the company has yet to feel the full brunt of the diesel emissions scandal. Good news for gear heads. The US copyright office [00:02:00] ruled in favor of mechanics and car owners by granting an exception to existing copyright law. The law was originally meant to prevent software pirating and bootlegging of Hollywood movies.
