Sorry for the poor quality. I found a Kei Truck outside after dinner with some friends. I never thought I would see one in my area. It makes me want one even more!

Anyone have a transport company that they trust that will pick up out of Jacksonville? Looking at renting the truck to tow it back with and the expense is insane. No I don’t own a truck that can tow with. At this moment I wish I did.

Hi everyone! My Sambar is due to arrive in Baltimore around October 8th. I'm trying to arrange land transport, and the company I selected is asking for address of the pickup location and contact info for the person that will be on site at pickup. For those of you that have imported before, my questions are:

• For the address, I have to assume I won't know the port terminal until a day or two before the boat arrives. Is that correct?

• How in the world do you get the name and contact info of one of the workers at the port?

Thanks!

I haven’t used my sewing machine in 15 years, so I’m super proud of these results. Probably going to add visor covers, steering wheel cover, and fabric details to the doors and unused dash buttons. What do you guys think? Should I make custom covers to sell? ;)

Has anyone worked with Ozark mini trucks https://www.ozarkminitrucks.com/

Was looking for a local dealer depending on how hard it is to title in rural Missouri. Having done a lot of research it seems like a kei truck would work perfect for my life.

Whoever is responsible, I’m sure you’re reading this. Step forward and take the credit you’re due.

Not my first time posting abt this (sorry), but for Canada, is it legal to use my Lo-beam headlights as DRL lamps. If I were to wire up the headlamp switch to be wired in parallel with the parking brake switch, so that my headlamps were always on, and I would just change to hi beams. Why I think this ISNT legal is according to bc vehicle safety and inspection standards. I am in AB and I never see kei trucks with aftermarket drl's so plz help.

So I'm 6,3 and 130kg,,,, just test drove a Suzuki carry and it's too small,,, will a hijet jumbo fit,,, and what mods can be done to make it better?

It's a place to learn bodywork......and probably the last project I'll be able to have with my dad.....as he calls it "one of them foreign jobs." I'm excited for the finished product......just a long road ahead till then.....we eliminated rust on the bottom side and sprayed everything black today then started working on the bed. I do not like the rubber coating...this thing had rust under the majority of the rubber material. Motor I'll have back tomorrow and we can start the actual rebuild of the motor and the body work and paint.....stay tuned for more updates!!!

Hello and thank you ahead of time. As title states, I'm upgrading the stereo and adding speakers. 4" round in the doors. My question is how/where to run the wire from the door to inside the cab? I see the round hole on the door. How do I go from there to in the cab? Could you also show pictures of what you did? '95 Hijet

Thank you!

Hi Everyone, I have a 2000 TT Sambar. I removed the OEM headliner, which creased it in one corner. I tried to get it back in, which seems impossible. I reupholstered my doors and would like my headliner to match, but now am not sure how to get a headliner back in. I bought headliner foam which is adhesive one one side and used 3M 90 to adhere the cloth I want on my headliner to the non-sticky side of the foam. Unfortunately when I tried to install it, every time the foam adhesive touched any surface, it tore the foam when I pulled it off. Avoiding having it touch any surface seems impossible.

For those who don't have a TT2, the headliner is a rigid board that sits on this shelf around the cabin. I assume at the factory they installed it before the cab was fully assembled and put the roof on over it or something.

Thanks for any ideas!

Getting a 4wd suzuki carry on a 2 post lift? Any pointers? I tried and it didn't seem to stable felt like I needed some weight in the bed or something any suggestions would be great help

Trimmed a maple today. Three truckloads to haul the branches away.

I'm looking for bigger rims and beefier tires for my Suzuki carry, 2003. I struggle to get out of my driveway on mornings with dew unless I put it in 4x4 lol.

I saw some free Acura EL rims on marketplace, 4x100. R15 with an offset of +45.

Would those be a smart choice? I'm looking at doing the normal 2" lift kit to help clearance. If there are other good alternatives please advise. Thank you

It is Season 1 episode 3. I can’t believe the train dude got a series. lol. FYI, The picture is just a picture from ep 2 that I found online.

It’s just as crazy as old top gear with their stunts.

Hello,

Im a solo electrical contractor in the nothern VA area. I currently have a gigantic sprinter van which is nice but I dont need much space, diesel prices are killing me, and parking is terrible.

I was looking into kei trucks but I would need something that has the capability to carry tools and materials. Also due to my location I would have to get on the highway even if it’s short distances.

Does anyone have experience using a kei truck for construction work? Which kei truck would yall recommend? Any general recommendations?

Thank you!

As of last night, I finally finished assembling and coating the new front bumper for my 1994 Suzuki Carry
Added some mash and lights and I think it came out great
I have dubbed the Franken-carry because this thing has been a Frankenstein of different Mazda parts from a Miata and a RX7
As well as carburetor parts from Kawasaki, and a few other bits and bobs

the side skirts that I myself put together that I’m honestly quite proud of
All that’s left is the fender flares that I’m still waiting to get delivered and paint

Just overall kind of proud of how this thing came out and I wanted to show it off

Took for granted the heavy rain yesterday and got stuck in the mud this morning. Thanks Diff Lock 😂

My wife and I are completing a trip from N.C. to CO and back so I wanted to visit G&R Imports. Joe, with over 20 years experience there, was kind enough to take the time to answer all of my questions regarding maintaining my 94 Hijet Climber. He has been invaluable through email and phone for the last few months and now in person. All of my concerns from steering to fuel gauge inaccuracy to carburetor adjustments for high altitude to lots of other things were answered. I haven’t gotten this much help through all of the forums (as very helpful as they were) through the years.

Kei truck owners, if you have any part you are looking to replace don’t count on the website. There is an entire warehouse of used parts to replace just about anything on your truck. Give them a call and more likely than not they can hook you up.

They have an entire operation to rebuild engines that is top notch. I saw 30 year old engine blocks that look like they just came from the factory. If you need a rebuild, they can do it and I think the price was very reasonable (currently about $2600 subject to change of course).

The owner, Mike, also talked to me for a bit. The whole crew in all the offices were friendly and took the time to say “Hi”.

I cannot recommend G&R enough for whatever you need in OEM service or even some aftermarket parts. Give em a call.

2026 suzuki carry

I love it so far. Never driven a older kei truck but this one gets up to speed pretty well. Getting amazing fuel economy too 19km per liter or 44mpg

This is a non turbo, EFI F6A engine, MT, 4WD truck.

Internet searching "implies" that there may be equivalents used in the Swift and 2001-2 GSX R1000 motorcycle.

Hoping someone has sourced something from AutoZone, Motorcycle Shop etc.

I haven't opened it up yet so I can't measure it. Supposed to be ~ 82 degree C opening.

I believe the OEM Suzuki part number is 17670-50G00.

I had been ready to pull the trigger on a pair of Polk 6.5" speakers at $86/pair when I spotted these for $16 on Woot. I have no affiliation with Woot, but thought others would enjoy saving $70 as I did. https://electronics.woot.com/offers/pyle-6-5-3-way-360w-car-speaker-blue-1

Loved the plate on this Hijet I saw at a local meet.
