- Exciting times have arrived and with them a new group of videos begins!
My wonderful girlfriend Judy and I have finally pick up our own Sidekick!
Join us for fun and frustration as we tackle the multitude of issues within and try to make a decent rig out of this little beater.
The plans include a new transmission, a head gasket (or new engine), a ton of rust repair, bumpers, rock sliders, a suspension lift and much, much more.
This is an opportunity for Judy to learn all sorts of repair and maintenance skills and get her hands dirty with a bit of basic fab work as well. Maybe you'll pic up a tip or trick as well or, better yet, pass some on to us!
That’s a nice project you got there, hope the restoration turns into a mini series! Nice to meet you Judy!
Thanks Alex! Stay tuned for tons more Sidekick content.
Judy sends a hello to you :)
Good luck ...we will be watching!
Love it!
Thanks very much :)
Show her how to build it with solid axle Toyotas, 36's and a 2.3 from an Aerio or maybe an LS swap. Share your skills and build a beast!!! 😁
Thanks for your comment and continued support Banjoman!
Some Toyota axles and an Aerio engine would be awesome! The engine is a possibility as it needs a head gasket anyway, I'm pretty sure. If there's a 2.3 around I'll strongly consider that swap. I guess even the 2.0 from a Vitara would be an upgrade...
Is that a Isuzu pup next to it?
That's my shop truck - a 1990 Nissan D21 hardbody... only the body is utterly rotten so, not very hard anymore ;)
@@BalmersWorkshop nice! Looks very similar to the Isuzu pup
