We got the brake lines and a temperary drag link on today just to get it around the garage. The plan is to keep it cheap and beat the piss out of it. We've got alot of leftover parts from previous builds so its getting a 22r, 5sp,and case from an '85(harness, computer, and possibly pedal ass.). and I picked up another top shift today. All for free

In the end it should be a $250 sami built from spare Toyota leftover parts. Hopefully with duel cases if can figure how to make it work. Exocage new paint and bodywork to make it look pretty once, then wheel the **** out of it, roll it on the rocks and see how far it can fly at the sand dunes.

Started toyota spring swap fpr front of sami with brackets touzuki built THANKS now just have to get the measurements for a double shackle and build the shackles.

Moved the center pin forward 1 1/2 to move the axle forward

Need to weld a 2x4 across the front of the frame rails for the double shackle.

Mocked into place for measurements

Got the toyota front leaf springs in the back of the Sami.

Got the motor bolted up to the tranny but I put the mounts for the motor are welded in the wrong spot on the frame so I have to move them.

Got the motor mounts moved and the motor bolted in today.

I also modified the grill a little for some originality.
