Mini Truck samurai axle build
I bought this truck late last year and sold my Diesel Golf Cart project i had. My plans with the truck was to put the diesel drivetrain from the Golf Cart project and possibly 4 link it on samurai axles. I started out by putting my custom Kubota D600 diesel & Cushman 3spd trans in the truck. Once i had it driving i realized i wanted more power . SO, I took the drivetrain out and put it up for sale. I then traded it for a 04 GSXR 600 complete swap with plans of just selling it. I contemplated putting the GSXR in but it would take to much effort to get reverse and i can't get away from a diesel motor . The truck sat there along with the samurai axles and the GSXR motor and i decided to just sell it. I could never get any reasonable offers so I then decided to pull the trigger on the samurai axle swap. So after all that rambling here is the build....
Here is a link to my old Diesel Golf Cart build projecthttp://www.buggiesgonewild.com/diesel-swaps/96174-kubota-golf-cart-build-nothing-serious.html |

Re: Mini Truck samurai axle build
Since you've got the Samurai axles, you might as well go full tilt and put a diesel in a Samurai

Re: Mini Truck samurai axle build
The 1.6 has much more power than the 1.3 gas motor that it replaced. I drive to work (18 mile round trip) for 2 weeks on $20 of fuel.
