All the hubs do is lock the front hubs to the diff so they spin when your in 4 wheel drive. You still need to shift the transfer case into 4 hi or 4 lo.
They're so reliable once you get it figured out with the parts! multiple brands make em, like Honda and Mitsubishi. Super easy to fix engine, wide range of accessories available too! Great choice on this one!!
And for stick driving, 2wd will always be easier to drive, the 4wd lock is used to get out of bogs. 4wd unlocked will get you far but before entering extra rough stuff, lock it in! So much possible with this lil mule, can't wait to see what you guys come up with!
So yes locking the hubs allows for the 4wheel drive to work you still have to place the transfer case into 4wheel high or low. low is all your torque I'd only run it if you have a super steep hill and in 1st gear
It is actually amazing what those little Mini Trucks are capable of. My suggestion is there are a lot of videos on TH-cam about the Suzuki Mini Trucks, I would watch a lot of them to find out what others have done and what is best for the application and capabilities you want. I know that it is natural to want to put wide tires on off-road vehicles and slightly wider may be a good thing for yours, but if you have ever seen the mud bog videos they have tall narrow tires on them. So watch the videos before you decide what you want to do is my best suggestion.
Those trucks are awesome! You'll have fun with it, I've always wanted one of these myself. I would suggest putting a cage around the radiator, so nothing in the bed punctures it.
First thing I would do is hook the fan into the ignition switch so that way it comes on as soon as you start it. Another thing you could do is run the fan on a temperature control switch, ether one would just ensure that it is on and the truck won’t overheat when the weather gets hotter. Great video and a great buy.
I suggested that the first day he showed the property. 24 hr Capture the flag type mission every man for themselves survival challenge with 1rod, norm and weston. Everyone gets to bring 3 items
The fan is probably just because the radiator gets no natural air flow back there. I would also put some kinda guard around it so whatever you put in that bed doesn't slide into the radiator and damage it when you hit the breaks. Also, don't go too deep into water with this thing, because the engine might suck up water and hydro lock. I know you south eastern dudes like muddin around, but you gotta build your vehicle to handle that first.
I mean this is literally a dream toy for a guy lol. I’d throw me a dump bed on it, maybe find one of those truck bed tents that would fit it along with a air mattress. Get some of those super swamper UTV tires, DO NOT GO WIDE, put a small lift, wheel spacers to widen your stance for more stability, and throw you some new shocks on it. After that, get a hunting blind that fits the bed dimensions and you have a portable hunting blind. I think I need one of those trucks lol. I love it, love this video! I watch a ton of videos and comment on very few but this one is cool. Do yourself a favor, build a chicken wire cage around your radiator, that is a 3rd degree burn waiting to happen!
Great video as always LOJO. That truck is bananas. I love it. You could make it a complete survival truck. A tent that extends off the back, More lights, bigger tires, small lift, a brush guard, rifle holders, and maybe compartments for machetes and pistols would be awesome.
Great find, now just Bed liner the whole truck and lift it with some over sized tires and wheels. The market was flooded with those in Oklahoma about fifteen years ago. Thanks for sharing another great video.
These trucks are really cool and Suzuki makes a lot of power outters for the engine if you go taller with your tires you will lose power so i would definitely get some bolt on parts to get more power i had one on my farm for several years and one thing I did was instead of going taller on the tire i just went a little wider to get more traction and went with a little lower rear-end gear for torque wasn't very fast but went through anything and hauled what ever i wanted just throwing some ideas out to you love the content man have fun with the mini truck
The professional detailer came out in me when I first saw it. I couldn't believe they didn't at least wash the mud off of it and from under it before they sold it. But that's a hell of a nice little buggy dude, those things are awesome. Oh, and keep that carburetur. If something ever goes wrong with the one in it you might wish you still had it lying around for parts.
@Lojo hey bud, you definitely need the thicker tire for traction. Id spray the truck bed spray liner in there its cheap and it works, plus if u scratch it you spray over the scratch and u will never know. Also id do a googan paint job on it with some googan vinyl. You could casr off the back deck of that. Its going to work perfect for u and what ur looking for.
I suggest taking an off-road course. Winches can be super dangerous if they snap. Also you can damage the 4x4 system if you don't know what you are doing. Never leave it in 4x4 on dry pavement, the tires need to be able to slip otherwise things will bind up and break. The lever in the cab determines where power is sent. The hubs physically connect/disconnect the wheels from the power. Most trail rides you will want to be in 4 low, as it changes the gearing so you won't have to ride the clutch. 4 high is good for higher speed driving like dirt roads. Fix the brakes, learn how the vehicle works, learn how to pick your lines off-road and you will be golden.
Top tip for driving a manual stick shift is to palm the shifts on a right hand drive. Palm out towards the passenger door for 1st and 2nd gear then palms towards you the driver for 3rd, 4th and if you have it 5th/6th. I’m from the U.K. 🇬🇧 so pretty much everyone drives stick and automatic licenses are not so common often for people who physically can’t drive stick or just don’t have the coordination.
We used to have a Mitsubishi K truck just like that when I was in the Air Force. Brother, we couldn't destroy it at all. You're going to have a blast with it.
My first vehicle was the bus version. 900cc engine, fit like 7 people in there with trunk space. Mine was not 4x4, but we still took it fishing everywhere. The body is also really strong as the Toyota truck that smashed into my back was written off, but my mini bus could be repaired. Even took it to the wild coast in summer (South Africa). This video brought back many good memories. Thanks
When he said get so 5k likes to mod the truck my first thought was put a turbo on it and a snorkel. Also a small bed rack would be great for hauling stuff like kayaks and hunting blinds and still having storage space in the bed for other trip necessities. It's a sick little truck. If you do put a lift on it be sure to widen the stance cause it'll be very top heavy if you don't and more likely to roll over. Sick buy man. Love these property videos.
They’re very solidly built, LOJO… great find! Built like a tank. Japanese engineering to its finest. I would absolutely love to do a brake job on this thing for you!
Awesome new truck Lojo!! With the right tires and lift those things will go anywhere. I got a good idea for a horn. Instead of a train horn I think it would be awesome if you could get a loud duck call or something similar to that for a horn. That would make it the coolest truck ever just for that! 😆 you the man Lojo love the channel & all the new projects! I can’t wait to see more of the boat. Can’t wait to see what you do with it! 🤙🏻
Hell yeah. Would like to see this thing taller, wider, louder, wrapped in lojo beard face. Want to see this thing carry the quad and tow the gator. Man do it all, take us on this wonderful journey.
For a CB radio, get a President McKinley, that way you not only have AM, but Sideband and Weather channel too. For an antenna, just run an 102" whip off the rear bumper...
Yea wider tires and a snorkel not sure how low the air intake is so id add that just to be safe for when u take it mudding maybe upgrade to some marine grade speakers so u dont have to worrie about them getting wet and id get a tune up or have a mechanic check it out make sure everything is in good shape before u put a beating on it
Hey Lojo … if you camp out on it , you can set up a tent on the truck bed and not have to worry about being on the ground and uncomfortable. Also, less chance of creepy crawlers in your tent
U cray, cray brother... Love it. You can do so much with that thing. 1st suggestion would be getting some fatty low boy swamp tires and rims which will def take a mod kit but traction will be 100% better. That and a turbo if its not an aluminum block, nothing crazy but enough to add some horsepower if you have the bed loaded down and running through some swampy mess. AC.... a must fix since it has it and its hot as chit down there! Outside of that maybe mounting a quick release turret in the bed for a hand cranked .22 mini gun you can use on hogs... Buy the kit and I will build it for ya (you will need to get the barrels lapped or I can find someone). Maybe mount some high altitude and low burst flare tubes and we are talking about some major property perimeter defense.... Light up the sky, spot them and then blind them... Rain down some .22 fire... Shoot dang!!
I love the fishing videos, but it's also nice entertaining break watching the odd videos that aren't exclusively fishing. Keep up the good work. I hope to one day be in your position.
Just remember, when you get back on the road to put it out of 4 wheel drive. It can get hot and burn out. But its an awesome little van, specially for the farm
Welcome to driving on the right side of your truck 🇬🇧, the suzuki's are great offroad in the 4wd config being small and super light, I can see you having lots of fun with it 👍
LoJo, you should build a bed/roof rack system for it so you can haul around your Yak and poles on it when you head down to you river that's on the property. Make some sort of canvas canopy that can fit on ot as well. Who knows bud, the possibilities are endless with those cool Lil trucks! 😎
Don't worry driving manual is easy and also super fun!!! I have a manual eclipse, it keeps you on your toes. Only intimidating at first, it's actually very easy and becomes almost natural after a while. Just don't try to hit the clutch and reach for the shifter when you get back in your automatic truck! Lol!!
Sup lojo. Great buy. Need toys to do the work. Leave on property in 4wd. Need your excavator too. Clear all the brush and make piles. Cut trees and take firewood out. Het on river with chainsaw and pole cutters to make it good for canoes, kayaks ECT.. Start with campground by river to bring in income, then gocart/motorbike track to make some easy money ECT.. Great video👍
It needs to be wrapped with the gigantic squads logos in the black and green new rips tires tint the windows and put a mesh like wire metal box around the radiator to protect it but still let air flow thru
A Buddy of mine has one and we use it to go deer hunting to haul gear and the deer back. The thing is a tank and goes anywhere after he put a lift kit on it.
I like it, put some wheel spacers with wider and taller tires will help out with it being top heavy, I have a cousin that sells those in my area and he knows alot about them
Now this is cool . So many things you can do with that it’s crazy not only for the property and backroad if but you can take it somewhere else (maybe) like pulling a smaller boat to a boat ramp and it’s just cool. It definitely needs some bigger tires, maybe some rod holders on the side somewhere
I have a couple of them and I love them, but i prefer the diesel. You can mod them out to 1000cc for dirt cheap and then they hit freeway speeds. They make vans and extended cabs too. If you do mod, may I suggest tracks. I haven't been able to afford them yet myself, but my bed is now a blind with a winch setup for skinning.
I would get a rack to put on the top for bins and stuff. I know you can't do hunting stuff on here but for hunting content you could build a blind for the bed and hunt right from the back. I would add some more lights and get some bull bars on the front for reinforcement. Looks like some better shocks might be needed too with the way Andrew yelped lol. Other than that a toolbox for the bed maybe?
This thing is sick, one of the first things you need to do is replace those seats with some wrap around type that hug you, so Andrew doesn't fly into your lap again, maybe rhino liner the entire thing including underneath, add some skid pates under it. You already said lift, some wider tires, and new brakes, maybe install a couple of heavy duty "Oh Shit" handles around it so you have something proper to hold onto when you're bouncing around and a couple of "cola" drink holders up front. And install a couple of rumble seats in the bed for the boys to go along.
Any time you want to be in 4wd, you must engage the stick inside. Now you can leave the hubs engaged and be able to go from 2x4 too 4x4 without getting out each time to lock the hubs in. It will use more gas when the front hubs are locked in. But as much as you are going to use it. It will be just fine to leave the hubs locked in !! Super Cool tho !!
Narrow tires work better in mud not deep mud. A small contact patch is better in slimy top surface mud with a decent under ground, wide tires are better for floatation in thick deep mud. Make your decision based upon your terrain! Happy trails!
Howdy LOJO hope your enjoying the new toy! I’ve seen a comment or 2 regarding some things you wasn’t sure about but I’m gonna tell you anyway! Yes you do have to shift into 4hi or 4low after the hubs is locked in and also another thing some people might would argue with me but it’s always best once you’ve locked them in and have gotten unstuck to get back out and unlock the hubs don’t keep them locked in 24/7 only when you need the 4 wheel drive leaving them locked in will cause problems later on with stuff being tore up I’m telling you from personal experience but I’ve met many people that have argued with me saying it won’t hurt anything! Keep up the good content man!
I love knowing that LOJO is all about learning new things. I learned stick when I was 17 when I bought my first car I’m now 24 and I prefer it! Love the videos!
Bigger tires with a lift sounds awesome. I would recommend getting those brakes upgraded and put protection around that radiator so nothing slams into it. The reason why he has a fan for the radiator is that there is no direct air flow going to it like you would if the radiator was on the front of the truck. Sweet little truck though.
Wouldn’t be to concerned about going bigger tyres. Adjust your tyre pressures. Drop them to about 22 psi when your on the farm or off-road. It’s a small motor bigger tyres can cause the motor to bog down. Then you will have to adjust your gear ratios to compensate. We have those vehicles in Australia.
Engine is low either in the middle under the seat or the rear low center of gravity stick bigger turbo on it if it has one if not stick a 1000 cc bike engine in her
My dad has the van version in Australia, I always remember it would tip over if a big truck came the other way and if there’s no wait in the back hold on going down a big hill. Lol
Cool little ride. First fix the brakes. Second put a cage around the radiator and strap down the battery. Now for the fun stuff bigger tires, if you do a lift actually lift the suspension not a body lift. You'll get more ground clearance. Put bucket seats in and maybe have it rust proofed and wrapped or painted. Would be awesome.
Just a cool parts list I gathered up for you👍👍🤘🏼🤘🏼 Something like a ladder rack and roof rack combo lift wheels tires snorkel pew pew racks and holsters shooting plat form maybe bright lights interior lights for filming at night A go light spot light train horns from horn blaster they might work with you on the build series. Happy trails brother keep up the great videos
Should we MOD this truck out??
100%
Turn it into a mini Unimog
100 percent and run trails in your new 100 acre woods....Peacock Bass
Mount a 50 cal in the bed lol
Yessssssss
All the hubs do is lock the front hubs to the diff so they spin when your in 4 wheel drive. You still need to shift the transfer case into 4 hi or 4 lo.
My first thought "he bought flairs Japanese truck!"
Exactly😅
honestly he should talk to flair about what mods he did and how they all worked out for him.
the thing has been a camera stand at his new house for months catching the work being done, only recently has it been swapped out for a timber post.
I thought the same thing 😆
Flair is his daddy can’t you tell
They're so reliable once you get it figured out with the parts! multiple brands make em, like Honda and Mitsubishi. Super easy to fix engine, wide range of accessories available too! Great choice on this one!!

Googan paint job, bigger tires, train horn, lift kit. lets get it !!
There’s a TH-cam channel where a man in Japan built an in bed camper on one of those same trucks. Great video Lojo. Appreciate your content.
It is actually amazing what those little Mini Trucks are capable of. My suggestion is there are a lot of videos on TH-cam about the Suzuki Mini Trucks, I would watch a lot of them to find out what others have done and what is best for the application and capabilities you want.

Those trucks are awesome! You'll have fun with it, I've always wanted one of these myself. I would suggest putting a cage around the radiator, so nothing in the bed punctures it.
I was shoppin ( South Carolina ) for one - had a lot full of em but they just wanted to much cheapest was twice yours - too much
Everyone needs a neighbor like Darrel!
Yep, Q: What is better than owning a trailer? Having a friend with a trailer!
First thing I would do is hook the fan into the ignition switch so that way it comes on as soon as you start it. Another thing you could do is run the fan on a temperature control switch, ether one would just ensure that it is on and the truck won’t overheat when the weather gets hotter. Great video and a great buy.
Great idea
it probably needs to run on a decent relay
Paintball / airsoft course would be dope! Bring all the Boyz. AYO, Norm, Gravy, Dev. Everyone!!!
I suggested that the first day he showed the property. 24 hr Capture the flag type mission every man for themselves survival challenge with 1rod, norm and weston. Everyone gets to bring 3 items
And contests for subscribers to come play.
when you unlock hubs you might need to back up like 5 or 10 feet to disengage it.
The fan is probably just because the radiator gets no natural air flow back there. I would also put some kinda guard around it so whatever you put in that bed doesn't slide into the radiator and damage it when you hit the breaks.
Also, don't go too deep into water with this thing, because the engine might suck up water and hydro lock. I know you south eastern dudes like muddin around, but you gotta build your vehicle to handle that first.
Thanks for the tips 👊
@@lojofishing yea logo doesn’t know what he’s talking about 😂
Dont dump the clutch
U should watch Flair’s video on all the upgrades he wanted to get done and what actually got done. Be a fun drunk ride.
I mean this is literally a dream toy for a guy lol. I’d throw me a dump bed on it, maybe find one of those truck bed tents that would fit it along with a air mattress. Get some of those super swamper UTV tires, DO NOT GO WIDE, put a small lift, wheel spacers to widen your stance for more stability, and throw you some new shocks on it. After that, get a hunting blind that fits the bed dimensions and you have a portable hunting blind. I think I need one of those trucks lol. I love it, love this video! I watch a ton of videos and comment on very few but this one is cool. Do yourself a favor, build a chicken wire cage around your radiator, that is a 3rd degree burn waiting to happen!
Great video as always LOJO. That truck is bananas. I love it. You could make it a complete survival truck. A tent that extends off the back, More lights, bigger tires, small lift, a brush guard, rifle holders, and maybe compartments for machetes and pistols would be awesome.
I love the evolution of your channel man. When I first subscribed you were just pond hopping and now you have so much awesome stuff going on.
Neighbor Darrell is good vibes. Love to see him in the vids
💯
Aye 🙌
You, AYO, and Norm doing a scavenger type of thing with all 3 off-road vehicles would be sick!!!!!
YAAAAAS! 🙋🏾
I want to see Davey and Ayo riding around on the fourwheeler camera guy in a trailer. That'd be Christmas morning exciting!
Gotta talk to flair he has a mini truck and knows a company to mod it out like crazy
You and Flair need to meet up somewhere with both of your mini trucks and have a race with them!
Great find, now just Bed liner the whole truck and lift it with some over sized tires and wheels. The market was flooded with those in Oklahoma about fifteen years ago. Thanks for sharing another great video.
Roof rack, gun rack, ac repaired. Paint and you got a heck of a ride. Check the front cv joints. They sometimes go bad and break.
Mighty Car Mods has some great episodes with one of these things! They look awesome!
Property with Pond. Check. Farm Animals. Check. Bigger private property. Check. Japanese Mini-Truck. Check. What will FlairJo do next?
The optimism and confidence kills it my guy! All you got left now is use it around the pond.
These trucks are really cool and Suzuki makes a lot of power outters for the engine if you go taller with your tires you will lose power so i would definitely get some bolt on parts to get more power i had one on my farm for several years and one thing I did was instead of going taller on the tire i just went a little wider to get more traction and went with a little lower rear-end gear for torque wasn't very fast but went through anything and hauled what ever i wanted just throwing some ideas out to you love the content man have fun with the mini truck

Very true
@Lojo hey bud, you definitely need the thicker tire for traction. Id spray the truck bed spray liner in there its cheap and it works, plus if u scratch it you spray over the scratch and u will never know. Also id do a googan paint job on it with some googan vinyl.

Fix the brakes, learn how the vehicle works, learn how to pick your lines off-road and you will be golden.
Get a synthetic line on the winch.
^this
Thanks so much
LOJO out here turning into flair. Buying farm animals, buying ranches and Japanese mini trucks
I thought he bought flair’s truck for a second. I love you videos Lojo

The first thing that came to mind was camping/fishing out of the back of that thing
We used to have a Mitsubishi K truck just like that when I was in the Air Force. Brother, we couldn't destroy it at all. You're going to have a blast with it.
Please talk to Darel about how to use the 4 wheel drive and how to disengage it. I would hate to see you burn it up

Itll sink in mud like crazy if you widen it not to mention the motor aint meant to pull bigger tires.
My ocd has been going NUTS for a whole year that brake light has been broken 😂😂
Call Flair for some input, he has a little Japanese pickup that he pimped out.
That's such an awesome little truck. I feel like it'd take me a little getting use to shifting with my left hand instead of my right.
They’re very solidly built, LOJO… great find! Built like a tank. Japanese engineering to its finest. I would absolutely love to do a brake job on this thing for you!
Awesome new truck Lojo!! With the right tires and lift those things will go anywhere. I got a good idea for a horn.

No tires or lift, they are tippy as it is. That's why they are not DOT rated in the USA
Hell yeah. Would like to see this thing taller, wider, louder, wrapped in lojo beard face. Want to see this thing carry the quad and tow the gator. Man do it all, take us on this wonderful journey.
if its a rear wheel drive put some weight in the very back of the bed to get better traction and might make the brakes work better.
For a CB radio, get a President McKinley, that way you not only have AM, but Sideband and Weather channel too. For an antenna, just run an 102" whip off the rear bumper...
Yea wider tires and a snorkel not sure how low the air intake is so id add that just to be safe for when u take it mudding maybe upgrade to some marine grade speakers so u dont have to worrie about them getting wet and id get a tune up or have a mechanic check it out make sure everything is in good shape before u put a beating on it
I honestly think ur dad flare would be really happy u follow his foot step.. 👍
Hey Lojo … if you camp out on it , you can set up a tent on the truck bed and not have to worry about being on the ground and uncomfortable. Also, less chance of creepy crawlers in your tent

Welcome to driving on the right side of your truck 🇬🇧, the suzuki's are great offroad in the 4wd config being small and super light, I can see you having lots of fun with it 👍
I bet the turn radius on that thing is wicked.
U can put side by side tires on those trucks
LoJo, you should build a bed/roof rack system for it so you can haul around your Yak and poles on it when you head down to you river that's on the property. Make some sort of canvas canopy that can fit on ot as well. Who knows bud, the possibilities are endless with those cool Lil trucks! 😎
I love your videos! You inspire me to fish more and do what I love. I would love to see more videos with Pierce!
You and flair need to race for pink slips - fat & furious fishing edition
Ok ok ok....that’s BADASS bro. I’m buying one now for sure😂😂
Don't worry driving manual is easy and also super fun!!! I have a manual eclipse, it keeps you on your toes. Only intimidating at first, it's actually very easy and becomes almost natural after a while. Just don't try to hit the clutch and reach for the shifter when you get back in your automatic truck! Lol!!
Sup lojo. Great buy. Need toys to do the work. Leave on property in 4wd. Need your excavator too. Clear all the brush and make piles. Cut trees and take firewood out. Het on river with chainsaw and pole cutters to make it good for canoes, kayaks ECT.. Start with campground by river to bring in income, then gocart/motorbike track to make some easy money ECT.. Great video👍
It needs to be wrapped with the gigantic squads logos in the black and green new rips tires tint the windows and put a mesh like wire metal box around the radiator to protect it but still let air flow thru
Not sure why exactly but I love neighbor Darrell. Seems like a great neighbor.
Talk to flair to see what he did to mod his, also maybe put some metal tubing around the radiator so it doesn’t get damaged!
You should get a general lee horn for it
For 4 wheel drive lock in hubs and put in 4 low for deep mud and more power and 4 high for driving at higher speeds
Lift kit, bigger tires, paint job, incase radiator and battery, upgrade shift knob. Let’s get it. 👏 👏
Get the brakes done and put a protector around the radiator . Also 4 wheel drive still has to be engaged when you lock the front hubs .
A Buddy of mine has one and we use it to go deer hunting to haul gear and the deer back. The thing is a tank and goes anywhere after he put a lift kit on it.
That truck is the shit. Way cool and so many things can be done with those. Great buy!
I like it, put some wheel spacers with wider and taller tires will help out with it being top heavy, I have a cousin that sells those in my area and he knows alot about them
Ladder rack for kayak and a hitch maybe. And wrap it or maybe spray with bed liner for a paint job
Wider tires, spacers, paint job, oil change 👌
Now this is cool . So many things you can do with that it’s crazy not only for the property and backroad if but you can take it somewhere else (maybe) like pulling a smaller boat to a boat ramp and it’s just cool. It definitely needs some bigger tires, maybe some rod holders on the side somewhere
New googan style paint job might be a cool idea too like a Camo paint job but with the googan green in it
I have a couple of them and I love them, but i prefer the diesel. You can mod them out to 1000cc for dirt cheap and then they hit freeway speeds. They make vans and extended cabs too. If you do mod, may I suggest tracks. I haven't been able to afford them yet myself, but my bed is now a blind with a winch setup for skinning.
I would get a rack to put on the top for bins and stuff. I know you can't do hunting stuff on here but for hunting content you could build a blind for the bed and hunt right from the back. I would add some more lights and get some bull bars on the front for reinforcement. Looks like some better shocks might be needed too with the way Andrew yelped lol. Other than that a toolbox for the bed maybe?
That thing is the absolute coolest thing I've ever seen!!!!! I WANT ONE
You should try fishing at Bartlett lake az
So proud of you Lojo for learning stick shift. So much fun. I drive a manual Jeep daily, she’s my race car lol.
We need more neighbor Darrel!
This thing is sick, one of the first things you need to do is replace those seats with some wrap around type that hug you, so Andrew doesn't fly into your lap again, maybe rhino liner the entire thing including underneath, add some skid pates under it. You already said lift, some wider tires, and new brakes, maybe install a couple of heavy duty "Oh Shit" handles around it so you have something proper to hold onto when you're bouncing around and a couple of "cola" drink holders up front. And install a couple of rumble seats in the bed for the boys to go along.
Any time you want to be in 4wd, you must engage the stick inside. Now you can leave the hubs engaged and be able to go from 2x4 too 4x4 without getting out each time to lock the hubs in. It will use more gas when the front hubs are locked in. But as much as you are going to use it. It will be just fine to leave the hubs locked in !! Super Cool tho !!
I want one so damn bad you need to make it fast there’s many different ways but they are monsters off road and on I luv kei trucks
Narrow tires work better in mud not deep mud. A small contact patch is better in slimy top surface mud with a decent under ground, wide tires are better for floatation in thick deep mud. Make your decision based upon your terrain! Happy trails!
Howdy LOJO hope your enjoying the new toy! I’ve seen a comment or 2 regarding some things you wasn’t sure about but I’m gonna tell you anyway!
Yes you do have to shift into 4hi or 4low after the hubs is locked in and also another thing some people might would argue with me but it’s always best once you’ve locked them in and have gotten unstuck to get back out and unlock the hubs don’t keep them locked in 24/7 only when you need the 4 wheel drive leaving them locked in will cause problems later on with stuff being tore up I’m telling you from personal experience but I’ve met many people that have argued with me saying it won’t hurt anything! Keep up the good content man!
15:47 😂 I love how LOJO randomly says I love you
I love knowing that LOJO is all about learning new things. I learned stick when I was 17 when I bought my first car I’m now 24 and I prefer it! Love the videos!
Bigger tires with a lift sounds awesome. I would recommend getting those brakes upgraded and put protection around that radiator so nothing slams into it. The reason why he has a fan for the radiator is that there is no direct air flow going to it like you would if the radiator was on the front of the truck. Sweet little truck though.
Big tires would ruin those axels
@@RGProductions I'd say it depends on how big you go.
Wouldn’t be to concerned about going bigger tyres. Adjust your tyre pressures. Drop them to about 22 psi when your on the farm or off-road.
It’s a small motor bigger tyres can cause the motor to bog down. Then you will have to adjust your gear ratios to compensate.
We have those vehicles in Australia.
Engine is low either in the middle under the seat or the rear low center of gravity stick bigger turbo on it if it has one if not stick a 1000 cc bike engine in her
Also last tip shift to first when going up big hills . Lower gear means more torque
My dad has the van version in Australia, I always remember it would tip over if a big truck came the other way and if there’s no wait in the back hold on going down a big hill. Lol
That thing is so cool! You should get some bigger tires, then she would be a true beast! great videos lately!
Awesome! I live New Jersey there is this guy who has three of these and uses them for work!
Hey lojo, flair got a mini truck to now you guys can race .... lol
Yep bigger tires, synthetic line on the winch so you do not kill yourself, guard around radiator.
Cool little ride. First fix the brakes. Second put a cage around the radiator and strap down the battery. Now for the fun stuff bigger tires, if you do a lift actually lift the suspension not a body lift. You'll get more ground clearance. Put bucket seats in and maybe have it rust proofed and wrapped or painted. Would be awesome.
Just a cool parts list I gathered up for you👍👍🤘🏼🤘🏼
Something like a ladder rack and roof rack combo lift wheels tires snorkel pew pew racks and holsters shooting plat form maybe bright lights interior lights for filming at night A go light spot light train horns from horn blaster they might work with you on the build series. Happy trails brother keep up the great videos
I see you're going the FLAIR route.
