Someone made an offer that I couldn’t refuse.

Thanks!!! I regretfully sold the Samurai.

The truck is still going strong although I don't drive it much anymore due to getting a SUV for daily driving duties.

There is a group buy going on right now... https://delicaforum.com/index.php?threads/official-hyundai-d4bf-engine-purchase-thread-july-2020.2384/page-2#post-24472

It's doing great with the new gears and tires, I am running the stock transmission. 3000rpm is about 68mph which seems to be right in the sweet spot.

There was a Pirelli model that I ran across that was a class c. I think it was the Scorpion Mud terrain.

Mounted up some 235/85-16 Cooper STT Pro's...

Mounted up some Cooper STT Pro's in 235/85-16, basically a 32"x9"...

I scored a set of RX8 leather seats for a great price.

I made some rock rails....

I finally got my axle ratio swapped out to the 4.90's to correctly gear for the 235/85-16 Cooper STT Pro tires that I just ordered.

They are 59" WMS to WMS Only the Montero's with the SR or Winter package will have the locker (you'll see the locker switch in front of the shifter next to the cigarette lighter. You will also need to grab the little air pump from under the rear seat. 95-96 has 4.636 axle ratio 97-99 has 4.272...

I haven’t installed the rear gears yet, I’m waiting till I switch tires. It’s a 8” in the front. Yeah, that axle is one of the most popular axles out there, you can get about any locker that’s made. You can also adapt the Toyota e-locker. It will never end! LOL

Thanks! The 4:30’s are replaced with 4:88’s. Yeah, OME’s for sure at least in the front. I haven’t looked around to see if their available for the rear yet. 235/85-16 MT’s

I added a couple more leaves to the front packs to take care of the negative arch and add 3" blocks to the rear to level it out. I'll eventually replace the front and rear leaf springs with Old Man Emu.

My Mazda to Toyota solid axle swap is basically finished. I'll have to get some new springs as these used ones are pretty tired. I'll be going to a little larger tire before this winter. Huge thanks to my friend John Rowling at Rowlin's Garage and Fabrication in LaGrange for all of the help...

Should have it finished up tomorrow. Still have to get shocks and brake lines.

I got started on the SAS swap today, actually got farther than I thought I would... Is this the point of no return?

This truck started as a 1977 F100 300 6cyl, 57,000 original miles, 3 speed manual, manual steering, non power brakes with factory A/C and cargo light that I rebuilt 4 years ago. I have put 15k on it since, all parts were new when built. It now has a 1978 F250 frame, 460 8cyl with a C6 auto, 4x4...

Thanks!
