I just made an order myself for 5 stickers - I'll update this thread when they arrive and if anyone in the area wants one they can stop by and pick one up no charge (limited supply)..
Is that the factory wheelbase? I don't know anything about samurais but damn that thing is short - must be nice getting over almost anything without getting high centered!
Hey sorry for the late response - the engine and related parts are all sold, sorry. If you've got the crappy 3.0l you should look for a 3.4l and do what I'm doing! My biggest problem so far is getting the damn pedals to work but you wouldn't have to do that if you've already got a 5 spd.
I guess it depends on how much you abuse your truck - speaking for myself personally, bush bumpers (especially the front one) are invaluable. I would have destroyed my front end many times over if not for my bumper. The rear one is helpful for protecting your glass mostly, you actually get the best clearance with no rear bumper at all.
In looking at the pictures more, I'm actually not sure if it's really a 4" ifs lift.. it could be half suspension lift with some body lift as well. I could be wrong but I would expect the lower control arms to be at more of an angle otherwise. As far as the tires are concerned - that's the same size I run. Granted I don't drive on the road all that often but I find wheel offset and wide tires help on the trail. I guess it really depends on whether this will be a dd or more of a weekend rig.
