Suzuki samurai parts???? Where to get them - Great Lakes 4x4. The largest offroad forum in the Midwest

JACK48461 · October 24th, 2011, 01:27 PM

I just picked up a running driving 1990 samurai but i would like to find a new floor pan and fenders. Id preffer to find a complete parts truck for the body if any one knows where to get one. I basically need to do a body swap. Otherwise i may have to truggy it to take care of the rust. I've found rockers and front fenders but cant find anything for complete rear quarters. If i could find the back half of one that would be great. Let me know or throw me some ideas this is my first Non-chevy vehicle so i have no clue where to start. thanks

your best bet is to watch the suzuki boards & pirate for someone who is building a buggy.

Put a add in the wanted section of craigs list.A lot of people have a junk car in the back yard,but they are attatched to it,and wont call a scraper.they might call you if they think there beloved sammi will be fixed instead of scraped.
My freind put a add for a jeep project in the wanted section.three phone calls later he bought a 97 sahara loaded that needed a t-case and glass.

I did a body swap on my quite a few years ago, I'd recommend that over trying to fix the rust.

Just find a Southern body drive, pick it up install.

yea i'm trying to find a decent rub for it now but i still plan on cutting it apart and doing tube fenders so idk how far i wanna go im gonna try to keep this build under $3000 my floor pans aren't that bad at all but though if i could pic some up cheap it would save me some time of cutting and welding.
