My new sami build

maddhatter · 03-09-2008, 01:34 PM

I got this sami from 94 dodge truggy and I'm getting started on it now.
It came with EFI and a soa already done (well kinda done) LOL
So far the wether has not been a freind but I did get the front broken shackel changed and my buck shots put on.
The motor has a knock but I found a rebuilt 1.3 and It should be going in next weekend. I also have a cage waiting to go in as soon as I get a better day as well as a new pass door, Z-bar for the steering , shocks , drive shaft extentions. I'm sure as I go there will be more! lol

At least we see pics of it now...

Congrats!! Looking forward to seeing the progress on it. Be sure to post updates..

maddhatter · 03-11-2008, 08:58 PM

I got the brake line that was leaking fixed and the cage bolted in as well as a few other small things today.

maddhatter · 03-16-2008, 07:34 PM

I got the back shocks,shifter ball,grill and a new pass side door so I have windows again!

94Dodge Truggy · 03-16-2008, 10:28 PM

Does it run well yet?

maddhatter · 03-16-2008, 10:54 PM

I'm still waiting on the guy to get his motor pulled for me so I'm doing all the other stuff while I wait. I hope to have the new motor in some time this week but we will see if it happens or not.

maddhatter · 03-25-2008, 04:47 PM

Well I parked this sami out back and over night it turned into this!!!!

I always knew that sewer plant was bad!! LOL

It's trail ready for the most part with a spool in the back and new tractors as well as a cage (well kinda).
All I have had time to do to it so far is clean it up some and put some hood pins on. (they had the hood held down with bolts and wing nuts!)

Yes I did an even trade for it.

94Dodge Truggy · 03-25-2008, 04:53 PM

Good trade! Bring it to the badlands trip.

maddhatter · 04-07-2008, 09:36 PM

Ok so I have got a lot done on the beater so I thought I would show it off some! LOL

I got a windseild frame (plexy to be added) , 1/2 top , 2 more front lights , 2 back lights , for point harness as well as getting the heater working. It's getting better but still has a LONG way to go.

blazerbrad · 04-11-2008, 11:37 AM

Holy long shackles, Batman!

carwash · 04-11-2008, 11:46 AM

wow, they are almost on the ground... needs larger tires to create better shackle clearance.

jesus, it's like truggy's baby... you did get this from pater didn't you?

Yeah then he needs to put NOS purge valves so they spray out the nose, then it would be about as cool as stacks on a diesel

maddhatter · 04-21-2008, 09:02 PM

Well Hoddie lost his fangs today!!!! I got the front SOA axle in!! I still need to redo the lower shock mounts and get the steering right on the front as well as get the back done. the back aleady has the SOA perches so thats not to bad it has a LONG way to go but it's coming alone little by little.

mckeddie · 04-21-2008, 10:03 PM

why not leave the rear SUA so you don't have to worry about wrap? looks to set pretty level as is, especailly seeing as how the front will sag after a ride or 2 anyways.

maddhatter · 04-21-2008, 10:46 PM

Yea I was thinking the same thing but it's more then it looks like in the pic's when you see it up close. I might just leave the back spua and run YJ's in the back witch gives 2" over stock and run what ever shackle makes it level but I'm still not sure.
