[@sully3acr]

I cannot thank Matt enough for all the work he has done for me! Thank you, Collin, for bringing this build to light! I love it!

[@Built2Wander]

You are so welcome! Thank you for a fun day on the trail together! Hope you enjoyed the video. 🤙🏻

What was ballpark cost to do all the axle and fab work?

[@jsdurha1]

I had a buddy in highschool with a stock one and we did crazy 4 wheelin in that thing. Never left us stranded

[@Built2Wander]

They are fun vehicles!

[@johnrushenberg100]

tires , axels , lockers , 4linked , coilovers , hydraulic steering and low center of gravity = it's going to do really well wheelbase looks perfect and looks sick with no flares with the stretched wheelbase and bodywork

[@Built2Wander]

Couldn’t agree more!

[@jasonlovell3934]

Definitely the best Suzuki I have seen.

[@Built2Wander]

Thanks Jason! I think there was some Lovell magic involved in the build! 🙌🏻

[@adamclinkenbeardclinkenbea7741]

Did I miss the drivetrain info? I saw it had Land Cruiser axles but what motor-tranny-transfer case? Looks like a really neat rig.

[@Built2Wander]

It has the 1.3L Suzuki motor, stock tranny. 6:1 in the factory t-case

[@devronlewis2503]

I shouldn't a watched this...now I want a jacked Samurai!

[@charlestiffany1526]

That’s a crazy built samurai. It looks great! I’m in Colorado myself and have a samurai I’m always doing something to.

[@Built2Wander]

That’s awesome! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. 🤙🏻

[@sully3acr]

We need a Suzuki event here in Colorado! Let's do it!!!

[@zackj_com]

Such a sick Samurai! Great job Matt.

[@Built2Wander]

It really is pretty wild. Fun to see it work so well first hand too!

[@lennyross2813]

As a samurai owner and an 80 series landcruiser owner I can attest to the strength of the axles. Great rig! Sounds like you kept a Suzuki motor in it…?

[@Built2Wander]

Yep, it has the 1.3L Suzuki motor in it!

[@Robi615]

[@galacticnova85]

Looks like they didnt even air down and it still just crawled up stuff, thanks for sharing

[@gburtch2440]

[@miosesguerrero3459]

[@FawknHayn2986]

Axle gears, engine, transmission and t-case? That is my only question

[@jamiecorley1700]

What type of engine and axle gear ratios and transfer case type and transmission. Thanks.

[@speedfreak8200]

They're not Samurai's anymore, They're full size

[@yzlvr]

Runnin the stock motor?

[@sully3acr]

Yes sir, EFI 1.3 with the stock tranny, and a 6.1 Tcase... It just runs great off road!!! Thats what I wanted..

[@felipeathem2269]

What engine does it have?

[@rickdunbar2319]

Hey i have a cabin up there in placer valley.

[@kordelskis4471]

inspo

[@grantog123]

Engine?

[@j2custom]

Maybe run it over the scales. I doubt it is under 3000lbs

[@dannylevesque5575]

I was really into it seeing as I've been the owner of 25 Samurai's since 1995. Everything look great until the shot of the front bumper and the crappy welds.....Oh well
