1483samurai, get your own spring over dude! I actually sold this truck about 6 months ago but since it was a dual purpose vehicle (daily driver / weekend wheeler) I decided to leave it spring under for better highway drivability. It did however have about 3.5" of lift from an old man emu spring kit and a set of 1" lift shackles.
Kauaiboy89, I wouldn't plan on getting a stereo to sound tuned in a Samurai due to the tin can effect and unless you have a hardtop alot of the sound just escapes out of the vehicle. The magnaflow system did have a nice note at idle and regular driving speeds however so it would not drown out any stereo system too much.
im a car audio enthusiast and like to hear the detail in my speakers since i spend a good dollar on them so my samurai being fairly quiet is pretty important to me, one of the things i like about it now is that its quiet, we all know these vehicles can be a noisy one compared to newer cars n trucks so try my best to keep her quiet. but the thing is i do love how a good exhaust system sounds. so that being said i was wondering if the magnaflow cat and muffler would stay quiet enough on normal rpm
My muffler was rusted and had a major rattle, local shop quoted me 250 part +100 labor for the repair??... just from the cat back!
So I ordered a 2" Magnaflow from Low Range Off Road in Utah (329 US), as well as a Warrior Roof Rack and a bunch of break parts. With the dollar so good I suggest driving down to Oregon and avoiding duty & tax.
I cheeped out and stayed with the stock header. Dose it make a big difference?
nice rig, I have a 88 zook and am trying to fix it up one piece at a time I put a weber carb on it and it was like day and night is there any way you can tell me what parts you bought to do this thanks
very cool man i spent 12months building a stock sierra into a offroad machine and i put 2.5 straight through system with lukey extractors and i definetly notice the power difference and it sounded pretty similar to yours i like it

dude you need new shocks yours are maxed out from what i can see.

Those are fine Australian shocks (O.M.E.). They still work well with the 3" lift but wouldn't take much more.

great, where did you find the magnaflow exhaust? have you seen an improvement of power?
pigisuzuki 3 years ago
Definitely more power. Used universal fit stuff from magnaflow 94000 series for the cat and a 6" round offset/ offset 2" in/out muffler.
