So You Want to Mod That Sambar? Let's Talk About Some More Basics On Lowering Or Lifting KS or KV

[@SpecialKeiz]

Yes the 175R13 Desert Hawk just touches the coil spring at the top of the tire.. Hawks are 24'' strong

[@nickjonas4113]

What’s the wheel/tire set up there? Looks great!

[@MCLEO983]

Dude you are the man. Thanks for the info

[@OhKeiGarage]

Anytime man!

[@timjames3200]

Now I know where the fuse box is if I ever get one of these. 😂

[@OhKeiGarage]

Change that "if" to "when"

[@darkranger54321]

Hey man, great vid! I’m up in Canada and my sambar comes on Friday! Do you know if these tires are dot rated? I’d like to buy a set

[@OhKeiGarage]

Yes they are!

[@MrMikey366]

Do you know of any places to buy lowering springs for the Sambar? Or dimensions of the springs? Can't seem to find much of anything for the Sambar in general.

[@OhKeiGarage]

ebay has lowering springs for the sambars. they're greddy springs.

[@agustinroccazzella4529]

Unpopular opinion: I totally agree with the wiper blade speed stereotype.. typically the super fast blade users either can't see, or can't drive 😂😂

[@OhKeiGarage]

least im not the only one!

[@nealgold8442]

Great video and very informative

[@jd3497]

With a lift you run the rusk of shock over-travel where the piston rips out of the shock tube or the mounting eye weld breaks.

[@OhKeiGarage]

this is true! i prefer to lower mine lol

[@edystone-kv1nz]

I’ve ordered gen struts from Japan. I also ordered those genuine struts helpers (yellow genuine 🎉) Do you recommend struts hats and bearing to finish? I need to have a good look in there, but removing the grommet plug from under the seat they don’t look too cracked at all! Get new hats in bearing anyway?

[@edystone-kv1nz]

Top tip in ur other vid Kevin, those strut helpers u mentioned in another vid will keep things from feeling that ugly ouch noise on ball joints and tie rods,

[@MadsWorld34]

i'd want to be able to put 23 inch tires on mine when and if i can ever get one.

[@Melicoy]

Thanks Will. What model is your camera I will find out how to change default to not inverted :)

[@OhKeiGarage]

Lolol. First, it’s Kevin. Will just reposts my videos in the sambar group 😆 second it’s the iPhone. I switch back and forth for fun, also I just plain forget to invert it. It’s just a setting for front facing camera I need to change to inverted 😂😂

[@Melicoy]

@@OhKeiGarage ops Im sorry Kevin. so Embarrassed. :( Its all good i will not talk about it again :) Love your videos and will keep watching I learn so much

[@OhKeiGarage]

@@Melicoy lol no worries man. im still learning too. we can all learn together!

[@generalcaeser9176]

My Sambar is the newer body style 1999 (31k km) and I'm having issues with a valve tick (is that normal?) and sticky gears. I changed the gear oil in the t-case but no difference in the very sticky gears (all 5 gears). Any advice? I been researching for a while now and am coming up empty.

[@OhKeiGarage]

so the valves may need adjustment but some valve tick is normal, they are not quiet engines. valves need to be adjusted anyways and I have a video on that from a long time ago. very very easy. TT is the same as the KS. and yes the trans is a little wierd due to the shift bushing possibly being worn out. i'd start by replacing the bushing and see if that helps!

[@generalcaeser9176]

@@OhKeiGarage I'll try to find your valve adjustment video. Oh, and today I discovered there were no linkage bushings! lol Been on the hunt all day to find some. Saw some for $30 which seams crazy. I'm going to call G and R on Monday. Any link for the bushings? I am being told from on-line sources they can be found for as little as $3.50 each and that they are the same as many other Subaru's. Hard to pull the trigger without being sure.

[@spencerkadel7581]

Do you have a link to those upgraded replacement cv axles? Or what vehicle they were originally for?

[@OhKeiGarage]

eBay has them. But they’re just the boots. Not the axles themselves

[@johansnyman7921]

Any info on the engine. Where to get spares other than Subaru agents.

[@OhKeiGarage]

it's a very subaru specific engine so not a lot of alternatives unless you do a motor swap

[@Specialffram]

What sound bar is the best song Dominion order automatic when you have a disability

[@OhKeiGarage]

who the whats it did you just ask me?

[@Charles-nl6eu]

Is it possible to find longer CVs for these so you could do a 4+ inch lift? Are CVs the only thing keeping you from more lift and more tire?

[@OhKeiGarage]

good question! idk if anyone has found a longer cv axle that fits the sambar trans.

[@larryjones7590]

I cannot find those rims anywhere! Please help! Thanks!

[@OhKeiGarage]

Which ones? The 15’s or 13’s?

[@timotaneous3300]

Where to get coilovers to raise the Sambar?

[@OhKeiGarage]

500yenshop.com and search KS4 Sambar. They’ll pop up

[@Wakeblake]

M/T stands for mud terrain btw, not Mickey thompsons.

[@OhKeiGarage]

LOL thank you. someone said mickey thompson once and it just stuck, but mud terrain makes more sense

[@SpecialKeiz]

"Heavenly Sauce" that's all I have to say about that...

[@OhKeiGarage]

heavenly sauce can really ruin an auction grade, stay away from the heavenly sauce lolol

They are engineered to be ''loaded'' so going downward is in it from the factory..lol
