  • We go on an adventure today @ Swiftoutdoors property to see if our Budget Power Sidekick can hang with the big dogs. As seen in earlier episodes our sidekick is mostly stock with a cheap 2 inch puck lift that was 89 dollars . A pair Jeep Wrangler YJ shocks we got of amazon for 15 bucks and a used set of 31 inch Mud Terrains for $150 off FB market place.

    Serious boogers and a set of lockers would go a long ways in that suzi. Put a body lift in for $150 and a decent suspension lift for $1000, lock rites front and rear for $600 and some 33" Boogers for $1200 and that suzuki wouldn't need any help.
    The question is, what if you put $20k into a Suzuki? And then run it against the RZR. That would give you an incredible suspension, gear change, trail tough transfer, 35s and one hell of a turbo'ed motor that would easily match that 160hp. And then you could drive it to work every day.

      "Budget" but in all fairness it was completely crap out, frozen then thawed out during this. So frozen underneath with layer of slick mud.

    That scene where the SXS is drifting around the sidekick got you my thumbs up, lol. Thats actually pretty good. I wanted to get a 1.6 for my samurai but then I started thinking that if I bought a sidekick for a donor I would have a problem dismantling something that works. I just don't like doing that so I think Im going to build a sidekick.

    Enjoyed it. Your truck does need tires. I think a nice set of tires would still come in below budget of the other sxs. Subscribed.

  • @timwaddell9450
    @timwaddell9450 Před 4 lety +5

    owned two of these in the late 90's, one auto, one manual. The auto was the way to go for off road. They are not the fastest things, but changing the exhaust and opening up the intake helps a lot. These things do need lockers though to compete with a sxs, because pretty much all sxs have locked rear diffs from the factory. Around here, you can't find a tracker or sidekick if your life depended on it. I search CR and FBMP weekly and there is never a two door soft or hardtop on there. What is weird, is normally you can drive around and spot jeeps, pt cruisers, vw beetles and the like rotting in backyards. But if you want a cherokee, or a tracker/sidekick, don't go to Idaho looking, they don't exist and if they do, people want an arm and a leg for them.

We had one run with us at hatfield mccoys. It was a total dog. Broke down, got stuck between gears and flipped in a simple off camber trail that rest of use just drove thru. Fun video tho.
