This is my Suzuki Samurai that I have set up with snow tracks to be able to access my remote mountain home.

  • The Camoplast tracks kick ass! I do recommend the larger 18 tooth drive gear for higher gearing and more clearance around the brakes. Just before I changed mine, one of the 16 tooth drive gears fell off (shitty). When I mounted the new ones, I was sure to use plenty of loctite on all the bolts...no problems since.

    Neighbor got a set of Mattracks. More comparison testing needed, but I don't think they even come close to the Tatou 4S tracks for float...

  • 1.6l 16 Valve.

  • Front drive flanges came off a Suzuki Vitara. I got them from Hawkes Strictly Suzuki.

    One thing to note is that the "drive gear" on the tracks could be bigger. The brake calipers rub on the inside of the tracks. It doesn't seem to be an issue yet. Time will tell. There may be a different kit available that has a 5 bolt pattern and a larger drive gear... not sure.

  • To ragdump... I got a set made for a Kubota 1100 UTV (2500 lb vehicle with 5 bolt hubs). Then I got hub adaptors to make the bolt holes work. I also needed to change the manual locking hubs to a drive flange (full time 4 wheel drive) for clearance sake. I also needed to weld up some different mounts for the anti rotation devices. All said and done... less than 5 grand...

    Automatic transmission would be a bonus...

  • I have the same unit i put mine on kimpex Commander Snow Only Wide Track kit, No complaints what so ever!! ill have videos up shortly.

  • Nice! I have a Geo Tracker and just picked up the exact same tracks. How did you fit the front tracks around the hub? It looks like I need 3" spacers and an adapter to fit the 4.5" bolt pattern. Any suggestions?

  • Edit out the wierdo with the sick sounding laugh.

  • How have those Camoplast Tracks hold up? Mattracks wants $9000 for theirs. That's nuts.

  • drive it on the road!

  • Stock 1.3 motor?

  • I don't have video of my Samurai but there's a Video slide show of at my place in 4 ft. of snow last week was the first time in 4 years I couldn't drive thru the snow thats why I was looking for tracks watch?v=3vU4W-DHH6k
