Parts recommendationa and questions
« on: September 12, 2007, 11:13:00 PM »
Have a few questions about what I should do.  I bought a 87 1.3 tin top.  It was stock except for front bumper, winch, and 28" wore out mud/snow tires.  ;D ;D
  So far I've put on the SPOA from breeze 5.5" lift with rancho 5000 shocks and steering drop link.  As soon as I'm done the rear lift I will be buying 31's as this seems to be the right size tire with out having to do to many other mods for now. 
  I will be using this as a bush/ hunting rig not rock crawling 

As far as I know I have 3.73 diff gears not sure about transfer case?  I Will be putting locker in the front diff would like an electric locker anyone know a supplier or brand?  Is the rear limited slip?  Should I put side kick diff gears in the diffs to gear it down a bit or will the stock gearing be sufficient for the 31's?  Any recommend a brand of header and do you have to rejet after a installation?
  Does anyone know if there is a Canadian dealer for the modified TJ bushwacker flares for the samurai Or should I just order from Rocky Road outfitters?   Priced out the TJ flares (not modified) from Calgary shop they wanted $688 + freight where Rocky Road will be about $450 grand total.  My big question is will a 1.6 8 valve or the 16 valve head bolt on to the 1.3 block without a lot of extra work ???

Kind of long winded but thanks in advance for any suggestions/answers.
