Early wheeling was purely utilitarian and involved full-sized vehicles like the Chevrolet Suburban for getting into the mountains for hunting. A chance purchase of a Samurai would see us knee deep in everything Suzuki. At that time, finding information on the still somewhat new internet for my new found passion was pretty difficult which drove my desire to create and build a website for Suzuki enthusiasts to gather and share information.

Like many, I started with (cough) Jeeps. The conversion to Suzuki and my affiliation with Zukiworld has given me the incredible opportunity to meet other Suzuki enthusiasts who have become great friends and together we explored some incredible places with many more to come.

From Wisconsin with over 17 years of very active wheeling experience, Mike’s first vehicle was a 72 Datsun pickup that was vastly modified to run 38-inch Gumbo mudders. Mike wheels in snow, sand, rocks, logs and the occasional mud. For this reason, he builds vehicles for all different types of wheeling. He believes that the Internet is a powerful tool and enjoys helping evolve the sport by leaps and bounds. Writing for Zukiworld lets him share ideas and which hopefully helps you with ideas on your next build.

  1. Hi, I’d like to speak with Mike Hagen, I sent him a message on Facebook but I’m not sure if it will get lost in the spam folder. Please email me.

    Thanks!

    Justin

  2. Hi Guys,
    I have been a BIG-FAN of your website for many years and now ask for your advice. I want to do a serious modification to my 1992 Geo-Tracker 5-Speed 4X4, it still runs and of course needs some Love…lol…lol. Can you recommend a shop to build me a custom suspension/chassis & axle swaps similar to these: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0gntTh4chohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oelnNtFRXuc

    I’ll be donating my OEM running gear to who ever wants this rebuild Project. My plans are to switch to a 7.3 Int’l Diesel (I own) & keep the clutch, bolting to a Spicer or Eaton 6-Speed & what-ever-works-best transfer case?

    Thank You,
    Wm.T.

    • Finding a shop close to you that you like the people that work there would be key. Since you’re not going to be keeping it Suzuki, there are hundreds of options all over the country to help you make your custom 4×4 a reality.

  3. Hey I registered for the forums about a week ago but account has still not been approved. how long does this usually take?

    • The approvals are hand crafted and thus take some time to complete. Yours should be approved by now, if not… let us know here and we’ll take a look.

  4. I have a 1987 suzuki samurai. I am replacing the distributor since the ignitor went out in the old one. Got a new distributor today. The wire coming out of the side of my old distributor is a brown wire and a black wire with white strip. This has a round plug on the end and plugs into a plug on the firewall. The new distributor Has a blue wire with a slotted clip on the end. The other wire is a brown wire branched with two flap plugs on it. How do I make the connection? I don’t want to cross polarity and burn up the ignitor? thanks

    • Please pose this question on our forum. I think you’ll be pleased with the response.

      • Hello Eric,
        Sorry going off subject. I’m making contact as I need help with my 1983 suzuki Jimmy Jeep SJ410. Trying to find seals for tranny and transfer case. I would appreciate your help as I believe you stated you have a Jimmy.

        Brad 530-605-6567

        • I’d suggest calling Trail Tough for parts. The 410 is going to have a 4-speed, which you know already. That’ll make it a wee bit harder but not impossible. To be honest, I’d look into swapping a 1.3 or 1.6 and 5 speed in there. Very easy swap. The t-case can remain. Good luck.

          • Hey Eric thanks for the reply. I’m in the process of doing your suggested swap to a 1.3l . I bought a motor,tranny and case for $500.00 which blew me away. You say motor and tranny easy swap. Any advice on tranny mounts wiring ECT…Anyb suggested reads or info. links you could suggest
            Thanks in advance Brad

  5. Where can I find an OEM basic winch bumper for a Suzuki xl7?

  6. I have a 2000 Chevy Tracker with a soft top. I have searched high and low to find the replacement soft top frame. Everyone I call says it cannot be gotten. Any info that you can provide me so I can purchase the frame would be great.

  7. Tried to Register and was told My email was already in use. Cool. Old sign in still recognized.
    Tried to Log In and was told my password was incorrect.
    Tried to reset my password and was told reset had been sent. Nothing showed in 30 minutes.
    Tried again. Same result. Nothing came to email address.
