  1. Re: McClellan Mountain - Argentine Pass - Saturday 9/10

    Interested in possibly joining in. I'd be in my Samurai and I'd probably invite my nephew in his pickup.
  2. Re: OPTIMA BATTERIES SUCK? THE TRUTH (according to Optima)

    I agree with FINOCJ. Adding a fuse panel and relay box to my samurai was a great way for me to plan for future additions to the electrical system.

    Re: Hole in the Rock - REDEMPTION

    Interested. I'll keep following. My Samurai has Detroits F&R but no winch at the moment. Hopefully I'll change that by the time you guys are ready

    Sounds like a cool swap!

    I'll have double check the date of when I said that but I believe I may have actually swapped the engine since I made that post. I'm currently running a 1994 Suzuki...

    Haven't had a chance to do much to the Samurai. But I did order some tires last month that finally came in. Hopefully putting them on tomorrow.

    Re: 87 Suzuki Samurai

    Really not sure but it looks like someone parked something else already. I probably can reach out to the new owners but that'd require motivation I don't currently have. Thanks for the advice though....

    Hose Works made the power steering hose and even brazed new fittings for me for the power steering in my Samurai. They also made my brake lines for my Samurai's rear axle. Great service!
