Sprint66 is buggin me to let him build me some swampers for it and I just may do that pretty soon. they will look awesome on those rims! Your gonna have to make the food drive. I will let you take her for a spin on the rocks and see how you like it.

Awesome! I plan on making it

I got a little update. I finally smoked the motor

but...I scored a Losi 18.5 brushless system for it

I really liked the smoothness of it and the noise level dropped too. I crawled it at the ScaleTrailRunners 3rd annual food drive and it did AWESOME! I did rip the shock screws out of it so I finally got it on the bench and built the body mount the way I should have in the beginning. This allowed me to mount the shocks they way they should be. Kinda killed 2 birds with one stone. I'm gonna tear it down and give the chassis a fresh coat of paint and get it all cleaned up and running perfect so I can post it in another section towards the bottom of the forum

If you know what I mean.

Here's a couple of pictures from the Food Drive.

I've gotten a few PM's about the 4 link I used so a little free pimpin for dinky rc is due. Here's a link on where to get the 4 link mounts I used.

Glad you found us! there's a ride this weekend! And as far as the food drive goes last I heard we donated enough to give 50 families 4 meals each and the shelter still had food left over

j-bird · 11-28-2011, 03:12 AM

I am like a kid at Christmas!

This was my brothers 1:1 Samurai, I used to love it and always wanted one of my own, albeit a little "smaller" than his was, I bet I have just as much fun with it.
Say a prayer for him, he goes in for back surgery tomorrow morning. When he gets healed up we will go hit the trails!

66sprint6 · 11-29-2011, 01:34 PM

The Sammi is a bad little rig!!! It has crawled with the BlueBronco many-a-time and always leaves a smile on everyones face when it does somethin it shouldnt. Its not a point and shoot rig like the big tire boys, it requires some driving but with some skill behind the radio itll make things it should never have even tried!!! Have fun with it, and keep the build thread alive with updates so we dont miss it too much!

First ride that I remember it bein at

With the ole TrailCourier

With the BlueBronco

Runnin the reduced swampers

OKJeepin · 11-29-2011, 03:44 PM

I'll post up pics as soon as it arrives, which might be as early as Thursday! I plan on just keeping up this thread (if it's okay with Mr. Ed) with my trail pics and updates of the Samurai.
Sure looks like a blast to drive, I'm sure I will learn alot in the first few days!

I think keeping this thread alive is cool with me! but we should give credit where credit is do and have a moderator change the name to OKjeepin's Suzuki Sammurai! she is yours now.

I got home earlier from the UPS store and freaked a little when I didn't see it parked on the shelf! but then I though...oh yeah....sold her
