As some of you may or may not know, I am a survivalist. So, the first thing my girlfriend learned when she got her new truck, is how to negotiate off-road obstacles. Observe:
Kylie's Toyota in Some Mud - YouTube |
That reminded me of my young days on my mom's 1984 mazda b2000, I was the only one crazy enough (or dumb because I was 15) to follow my friends jeeps, dune buggies and atv off road with it.

So, funny story...Yesterday I found an item crashed and parked next to a dumpster for disposal:
http://i578.photobucket.com/albums/s...y/IMAG0520.jpg http://i578.photobucket.com/albums/s...y/IMAG0524.jpg I contacted the local Police Department and reported it as abandoned property. Nobody had reported it stolen, and they said it was mine. I can't even believe this typing it. Anyway, so today I bought a set of ramps, took off the seriously damaged grille guard, and loaded it up in the back of my girlfriend's truck (Don't worry, I properly inflated the tires and secured it in the bed): http://i578.photobucket.com/albums/s...y/IMAG0525.jpg http://i578.photobucket.com/albums/s...y/IMAG0527.jpg Then I had some serious fun: http://i578.photobucket.com/albums/s...y/IMAG0529.jpg http://i578.photobucket.com/albums/s...y/IMAG0533.jpg http://i578.photobucket.com/albums/s...y/IMAG0535.jpg EZGo ST Sport II Off-Road - YouTube I plan to tighten all the loose bolts for the roof that I found today, and patch together the front clip...Then...I don't know. I guess drive it around like crazy some more lol. We drove it hard for 6 hours straight, no damage, no issues, and we burnt about 2 gallons of gas. Also, while out there, I found two tires on aluminum Jeep rims...so, if anyone needs a pair. Lol. |
Nice find and it looks sorta heavy for your girls truck =D
|
Wow, that is a great find!
|
Thanks! Well, once I got the tires properly inflated it looked a lot better. Believe it or not that little Toyota is a 3/4 ton lol. So it handles it well.
|
That's a sweet find!

Well, yesterday I hauled the little golf cart all the way to Plano and straight traded it for this:
Attachment 34417 Attachment 34418 Attachment 34419 Attachment 34420 Attachment 34421 A 1986 Suzuki Samurai. Rear bumper is now on it. Runs like a top. Loads of things to fix and tinker. Everything that matters works. |
nice trade I heard those things are easy to tip .... Might wanna make an heavy duty roll cage for it
|
Those are awesome, nice pick up!
|
i dont know about the tip over stuff, but i do know they are incredible
off road, and with a set of good tires, watch out, those go places most jeeps cant go... looks like a great trade,well done!!! |
oh yeah they have quite the reputation for going wheels up if you take a corner too fast.
|
Yeah, they had an incredible rollover rate when they were introduced. The more I learn about most drivers though...I can totally see it. I'm pretty positive I'll keep all four down on the highway. Because I'm not retarded. Haha. These are essentially a Tracker/Sidekick with a SFA. I have a lot of work to do, but I'm pretty excited. And 27 MPG ;) @ 55mph :x
|
Well, I'm selling the Blazinator to build the Samurai...Here's a link:

Got my lift on!
A buddy of mine and I pulled an all-nighter and knocked out the lift in 7 hours including a break at Whataburger and a trip to The Home Depot to get new bolts for the rear spring mounts. The bolts were frozen in the sleeve and we had to remove them with a sawz-all and a cut off tool.

nice!!! i like that k5 back there lol
|
Awww yeah!

People that aren't familiar with these little suzukis allways underestimate them. But a zuk with 31s will go the same places as a jeep with 33s or 35s. I'm on my 3rd sami now and first vitara (sidekick).
|
I am really fun of off road adventures. My friends and I do some off road trips and those picture above are really great and looks so fun.
|
Some more videos coming at ya. Including some of my brother's Sonoma. Enjoy.

|
Is your brother back stateside?
