Rebuilt transmissions with larger main shaft bearings!

Every worthy Zuk has Toyota running gear.. so for the most part Marlin carries nearly everything you'd need for a lil Sami!

Tcase gears

That's one I think we could really bring the price down on!

yeah I paid like $720 for a set of 6.4 from trail tough, nice kit but damn
and those were the cheapest ones

Thats just way to much. Marlin does a great job at offereing gears for a reasonable price. Everyone wants to sell gears for their value in gold.

I am a zuker and am glad to hear your interest in our rigs. I buy a lot of your toy stuff b/c... well- it's the best.

I too bought Trail Toughs 6.4:1 gearset last week but MIGHT be partially trading for a really nice yota. in this case I'll be ordering the dual case adapter next week

btw- love the forum. Im a newbie again

oh yeah twin stick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

no body sells a twin stick for them

I suppose it would be nice to split up that 8:1 t-case gear's huh

there's supposed to be one hitting the market soon

as for products to bring to the market ... a good toy axle swap kit using your drop hanger and shackle mounts would make a killing, but a lot of the east coast zuk owners have an aversion to shackle reverse

a high-steer kit with the right length drag link would be nice.

i wouldn't even try to get into the 22r/e swap realm ... too heavy and again, a good 4.3 swap kit supposedly will be hitting the market in the near future. if there was a way to adapt the toy crawl box in between the stock zuk tranny and t-case, that would be the way to go (eliminating the divorce setup).

another idea would be using toy springs for suspension swap instead of yj springs. the offset pins of the toy springs would be nice to increase the admittedly short wheelbase of the zuk ... just keep in mind, anything over about 3" extension in the rear requires the gas tank to be relocated.

I say a 22RE swap kit is a good idea, having just done this swap it really would not take to many parts and the power is really nice.

suzuki · « **Reply #12 on:** Sep 12, 2005, 10:03:50 AM »

kit for toy springs would be great i just recently put tacos in the rear of mine and early 80s rears in the front and the ride is really nice plus the flex is impressive

blyota91 · « **Reply #13 on:** Sep 13, 2005, 04:32:30 AM »

A Toyota Axle swap kit would be awsome, that's a big thing in the zuki world, like going to D60's basically. Roll cages, rock sliders and tube doors would be cool too, especially the tube doors. I think it would be good to have some of the more unique items listed there rather than just having all the run of the mill items that everybody has. Twin stick would be cool too.

Man, I cant get away from this guy.....

Nice Toy Jason, I seen it on NC4x4.

Some engine swap kits that arent the 1.6, 1.9TD and the 4.3, I have considered the 22RE and the Ford 4.0 OHV, just cant decide. I have a while because it will take money and I just cant seem to find any, anyone have some they can give to me?

I like the idea of a toy swap kit, but everyone that does it does it differently. I am going to use coils and stretch mine a little bit, so that would have to be a special order and custom kit.

msmoke · « **Reply #15 on:** Oct 11, 2005, 04:27:42 PM »

If toyota diesel engines wernt so rare that would be a awesome swap.

But yea maybe a Toyota leaf SPOA for running toy axles.
Toyota to samurai steering, or toy power steering conversions with the toy highsteer kit all as one.

longzuk · « **Reply #16 on:** Oct 11, 2005, 05:57:35 PM »

i would love to see the crawler box, cause you don't always need to be in low range.

good thoughts but any samurai that's seriously crawling is running yota's or beefier soooooooo the TOY hi steer kit works perfectly as is. and the IFS box is super easy to throw on there. for $200 more you can make your own hydro assist.

Marlin should sell the SOS RingR..............it allows you to bolt either a 4 cyl. or a "turbo" tranny to a 1.6L Suzuki engine or to a 1.3L with the addition of the SOS Lucky 13........$49 retail!

Marlin contact me if your interested.............I'll put a few on your shelf with NO money up front...........pay when you sell...............Kerry

PS Thanks for the updated parts for the ToyBox.........works great!

Marlin Id love to see you get Kerrys kits on the shelf i,d buy direct of you straght away dealing with you is so easy and i,ve allways been impresed with what you guys do for us guys in Australia. Loved the toy box was really impressed with the kit

Mikeyg79 · « **Reply #21 on:** Jan 04, 2006, 04:13:10 PM »

I'm going to put Toy axles under my Sami -

I will be buying Marlin hi-steer arms.
think the only products I'd really like to see would be crawler gears and driveshaft adapters. I'm not big on buying stuff, but some stuff you have to.

crapyota · « **Reply #22 on:** Apr 24, 2006, 12:34:03 AM »

i have a buddy with a sammi and he realy wants twin sticks bad!!! and possibley run dual cases some day. is marlin thinking of doing any of these things?

GRW · « **Reply #23 on:** Apr 25, 2006, 11:31:19 AM »

Twin stick (like the toy one)
Twin case

would it be possable to make a toyota crawl box work in place of the intermediate shaft? that would kick

you could run a toyota tranny

U-bolt eliminator kit:

I've noticed that the pivot that people are putting between their springs and axle perch eliminates the u-bolt, how about a kit that comes with or without the pivot that eliminates the u-bolt? For one thing it would eliminate the the u-bolt that sometimes crushes the axle tube when over tightened when you do an SPOA in fact Marlin should come up with an SPOA with the u-bolt eliminator that would be sweeeet.

This u-bolt eliminator could also be applied to Toyota's instead of doing the u-bolt mount flip.

Tusker · « **Reply #27 on:** Jun 23, 2006, 10:26:12 AM »

A real clutch would be nice. The Sami clutch is worthless and the only one who sells a good Sami clutch is Petroworks. I wouldn't spend a dime at Petroworks anymore.

A twin stick for the Sami case would be nice too but there may be legal issues with that (i.e. patent infringement?)

locjaw · « **Reply #28 on:** Jul 24, 2006, 06:33:44 PM »

the people who are modding trackers/sidekicks need more high range reduction. so for thoughts a kit that would bolt a sammy t-case into a sidekick frame OR a set of gears that reduces the high range (like the sammy does). also anything that mates toyota parts into anything suzuki!

I have a friend who built his own twin sticked samurai. granted it could use some refinement but functions perfectly
