Japanese Mini Trucks

here are a couple of pic's of mine. i love this little thing. i use it for a hunting/farm truck on my in-laws place and it works great. mine has 3" lift, 25" atv tires and wheels, cd player, optima battery, warn 4700lb utility winch that i can mount front back or in the bed via reciever hitches, etc. etc. the bed size of these things is huge compared to the side by sides out there. plus the enclosed cab with heat is great when i am heading out to the deer stand, duck hole, or where ever. i just got done replacing the coil springs on the struts of mine with some 250lb QA1 coil over springs and it really helped the ride in the rough stuff. it also gave me about an inch more lift.

well i am in columbus ga and i will spread my knowledge/ experiences/ justification of price etc... there are ALOT of shit boxes out there, these come mostly from china and the philippines, they are what you would expect, claims of greatness and most are ragged the fuck out and patched up... you do not want a truck that you dont know the origin of import, obviously they all are from japan, but make sure thats where they were imported from... most of these trucks have 40k-50k miles on them, not km, and will realistically last you forever.... i bought a couple of "cheap" trucks at first, they were from japan, but the quality was shit compared to the trucks i order now... most people ask are my trucks new, and as flattering as it might be i give them the pitch on why they look so good, like anything used, you get what you pay for....

price... this is what most want to know about... how come i see these trucks in front of joe blows gas station for $3500 and other retailers get around $5000, well think about service after the sale... parts are not the easiest to get and usually ties up a good bit of time on the phone/ internet to get them... now you buy a turd and then come crying to me that its broke, but you got a good deal on it and now you need sympathy, just like buying a cheap ass winch off ebay and wanting a reputable vendor here on pBB to bail you out... if you bought it from him, there would be no question about helping out, or fixing the problem... you buy good service you get good service.... we service all of our trucks, any issues fixed before the sale, and we stand behind them as do most legitamate dealers... a good retailer is going to make sure you dont have problems...

bottom line is to buy from someone who is knowledgeable and dependable... they are used and you will need something sooner or later so dont get bit w/ a cheap ass truck... i am in columbus ga. and i keep a good inventory... we take them to morris mtn all the time and my dad has a blast in them... he wanted a rhino, but these proved to be much more versatile, so we started selling them at my shop... i have one on our property and so does dad, they are awesome and i couldnt imagine an individual wanting to sell one, because i couldnt live w/o one now.... i dont want to spam the board, just provide as much useful info as possible, if you have questions shoot me a pm....

I just saw this thread! We have been selling these for years! The little trucks are great for offroading. We take them out all the time- Glamis, Dumont, the Hammers, etc. I'm in Socal and usually have 20-30 trucks in stock staring at $3500. All the parts are available now unlike a few years ago. Check out www.libertyminimog.com We deliver all over.

Place in my town just got a bunch in. I have been looking at these for quite some time. Does anyone make a locker for these?

What does the track kit cost for one also?

I think that the track kit and lockers I would still be cheaper than a true UTV.

Some came with factory lockers, but I do not know of a kit. Some people will weld the spider gears which works good.
I am a Mattracks dealer and can send you everything your need for the best tracks set-up for $5000 delivered to your door. There are cheaper tracks, but the Mattracks are the best.
