  • This is part 2 of buying a 1990 JDM Suzuki Carry 4WD Kei mini truck.
    In this video I will cover installing a timing belt, water pump and some seals, I will also be modifying the exhaust system. In part 1 I cover buying the truck, fixing some carb problems, vacuum leaks and starting on some cooling repairs.
    The next video I will be posting is Kei truck shopping with my brother, we will be looking at a few trucks and possibly a van so keep an eye out for that video!
    Thanks for watching

    In Japan, there is a vehicle inspection system, so there is a limit to remodeling in the backyard. You have a good understanding of the structure of the car and enjoy finishing the light truck well. Watching videos is fun. Light tigers are vulnerable to deformation due to collisions, so please be careful and enjoy.

    Mike, I had an old Subaru Justy, and it had a 1.3l engine producing 50 HP, and it was a cast iron block 3 cylinder engine. I used tractor mufflers on it as the OEM was $80. It actually was quieter than the factory muffler. I miss that little car.
    I think I paid $24 for my mufflers.
    My car had 12" tires, and I wound up using commercial tires as replacement 12" car tires became rarer over time.

    Sounds like you most likely picked the right radiator, but something to keep in mind is I have one in mine out of the van version the previous owner installed that is probably 50% larger than the original, I have trouble getting heat in the winter and I even remove the fan during the cold months. Also the rack is a must! I've found that these truck are incredibly handy for light bulky loads from the hardware store, even better for it than my Ranger! With the exception of getting stuck talking to people about the truck on the way in and out 😆

    Tip. When I do timing belts. Make sure the Marks on the pulley, is in line were the belt can be marked. But do two lines as a reference point. Then one on the others. Transfer the lines to the new belt. And it works great. I'm really proud of you. You did good. Have fun in that thing and don't let people borrow it.

    Not sure if you can compare a modern side by side's suspension to a 30 year old suzuki carry which was projected for city use and tiny tires. You could revise what you have on there, some lift kits are better than others although the 'hop' 'skip' i get in my one is down to the solid rear axle i believe - but i'm no expert. I do prefer it to a side by side any day!! I bought mine in Chile, a van version. Built it out with a couch/bed and hit the road. Crossed the atacama desert, up and over the Los Andes several times. Over 15,000 miles traveled around South America. Love it. Met my wife with it too! Its even got a name.. Bandito!
