Wildcat2142's New Project

Sounds like we need to get a wrenching party started.

Any photos so far?

Sounds good to me.  Every one bring their rigs over and we'll get to work

I will download them tonight. Then post them.

Hey Everyone!

I am still alive. I am sorry I have been non-existant for a long time now. I am going through some rough times right now and have had a lot or readjusting to do. The one good thing during all this though is that it has given me some time to work on the Zuki!

I am at the final stages of making it trail ready! I pulled the engine this morning and it is being delivered to the machine shop on Friday. While that is happening I am installing the Lockers (front and rear). I have no pics, sorry everyone, my ex-wife got the digital camera so...

I can't wait to get out on the trails with everyone again. I really miss going out.

I hope all is well with and everyone has Happy Holidays!

 The Pyeatt Draw Rock Crusher... welcome back man. So what are you having done to the Zuk's engine?

I'm getting it rebuilt. Bored out, re-ringed, a new carb, new cam, taking out the extras, the usual stuff

Jeez, sorry dude. You still out on Cotton Lane? I'm just a little west of you... holler if you ever need anything, even if it's just chillin with a beer.

What kind of timeframe are you thinking for your Zuke? Don't forget you can always ride with someone if you ever just wanna get out.

 Do you still have the Truck? Like Chris said you can always ride with one us.

I am living in Fountain Hills again for now. I still do have the truck. I am expecting to have the Zuki done by end of next month. I next trip out I will definately get out with you all.

 very cool

So since I have no pictures of the Zuki I'll give you all the break down of it....

Centerforce Dual-Friction Clutch, Throwout bearing, and Pilot bearing

 Can't wait to see that thing man.

Maybe shoot Ryan an email or even post up here...  http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?s=5bb7a65c7241a0df534ed6da1d2b6b89&f=13 seems to be a board just for Suzuki.

I ca't wait to get it out on the trails. theonly downer is that it has to be trailered everywhere. It isn't street legal. So i'm gonna have to invest in some sort of trailer to tow it...

Has anyone here heard of the Chile Challenge in Las Cruces?

Well hopefully you get all your stuff together soon, I'd like to see you and the Sam out here wheeling!

I have not heard of the Las Cruces, but I would like to try and go to this: Salome

I'd be up for going. the Zuki should be done by then.
