Thanks allot JC. I was in hopes you would post. :) I put 215's on her for now.
I need to make some rocker panel guards. I can't believe I haven't stumbled upon these before. This is the coolest little vehicle.
I ordered me a new top.($154 shipped). My old top was a two piece and the rear was worn out. The one I bought is a one piece. So I can still use the bikini top also.

You can run 235's if you trim the front bumper braces. If you have any questions, usually they can be answered at Zuwharrie.com
I have lots of spare parts if you need anything. One major thing that will go wrong is a $10 part in the tcase shifter. Factory rubber rots and it will either get hung in nuetral or 4 low. JC

I can't weld, so I bought rocker guards probably five years ago. They are a very simple design, my father looked at them and made him a set. JC

Maybe when it cools off and the grass quits growing so quick. Between my mowing and hogging extra money jobs, and the mandatory overtime, I can't even keep my own grass cut. JC

It's been so dusty riding lately we have been wearing goggles.
I'm glad we are finally getting some rain.

The Samurai is a great vehicle. I am still working on modding
mine up to be a utility veh with hyd dump.

I helped a friend get a 95 Suzuki Carry 4x4 micro truck (pictured)
just recently. It is imported from Japan and cost him $6K. It is
4x4, water-cooled, RHD, but not street legal and no dump. It
does have locking rear diff. Cheaper and better than a Mule, Gator,
or RTV, IMO. Sweeeet.

Isn't the Geo Tracker almost the same thing?

Is there particular year models to avoid or, or some years better than others?

Is the automatic tranny any good?

I can't see a turbo (like in the video in tommy's post) doing any good for offroading... Last thing I want in the mud is having to sit there waiting for boost to build up. Supercharger if anything but not a turbo.
