pays to watch to the ! was going to ask what was in them for a shim stack haha. I really like the shock mounts you built on the uppers. Rattle free is not something I can call my sami, maybe one day. that tire size is kick ass.
Hi. I was literally looking online for a samurai, and your video showed up. I have a question about the year models. I really would like to buy one as stock and keep it that way. What year model would you recommend? I think 91 to 93 convertible cuz of the updated engine and the rear seats.
I would be worried about the fuel injected models. As time goes on parts will be harder and harder to get. The fuel injected models will be harder to keep running. The carbed engines are very simple and when boiled down to the basics it is very easy to make one run.
@@mathewsren9712 it’s a hard question to answer, spoa for 31s won’t take much arch. I would take a measurement of your Sammy now then jack it up until it sits how you want it and measure again. The difference would be how much more arch you need in the springs.

Good info thanks!
Nice fix on the shocks. Where did those rims come from and where did the spare tire mount with 2” receiver come from?
Thanks. The wheels are from a Grand Vitara, 2002 I think. I made the spare tire spacer with rec tube.
Nice helpful tips…what is your wheel maker and size….?
I like your set up….
They are 2002 grand vitara wheels. 16x7
Do you think it is worth doing frame reinforcement plates when replacing the shock towers? I am not going to be racing, but I do like to party.
To be safe, yes I would. A lot depends on the design of the towers too.
I'm looking to do a YJ spring under on my 87 Samurai project. I'd like to go Dr.Z, but I need the rest of the components. Any recommendations?
What other parts are you looking for?

For us in india it's the opposite. The samurai mpfi is very simple and reliable.
Is the owner running spacers with those rims, if so, what size?
Yeah, 1”.
Hello, good video. I have a question, I also have spoa, and the leaf springs are flat, I want to send them to re-arch, what size should I use? Thanks!
