Interesting Observation Ebay Jeep&Samurai
As a lot of you know I have recently taken my Jeep back to close to stock. Many of my parts I sold on JU and Ebay every buyer that said they would buy something did. I have had really good luck dealing with jeep people. I bought all my Samurai stuff for cheap "because Samurai's are cheap" so I really have nothing to loose. So I recently came across a good deal on another 4x4 from a friend so I decided to sell all my project samumai stuff on Ebay and it has been one dead beat buyer after another, this is my luck so far with Samurai parts
Rear 3rd member with lock-right and 5.13 gears Dead Beat buyer Front 3rd member with lock-right and 5.13 gears Dead beat buyer 88 Suzuki Samurai Dead beat buyer Front axle shafts with Bif rings Good buyer Rear axle shafts Dead beat buyer So I really don?t know what the difference between Jeep people and Samurai people but lets just say I would rather deal with most Jeep people then the Samurai people I have come across. Moral of the story is If you are a Jeep person don?t swicth sides of the fence even if it does cost less to build the other rig. Or Don't sell your Samurai stuff over on E-bay |

I love jeeps but they are expensive and you need a Russian tank to tow them. The smaller 4x4 like Samurai's and Trackers weigh in at 2000-2500 pounds it takes a lot less to drag them around and the parts do not need to be as heavy duty to stay alive. There are some Samurai people that use D35's with 35's some 37's and they live just because of the power and weight difference. And my wife still loves me she just thinks I'm a loon but she already knows that |

You have any more Sami parts to get rid of? I'm starting in on an 87 tin top that's being put on Toyota axles once I have my Jeep back to wheeling status.
