Just bought an 87 samurai and already ripped it down to the frame and body. I have an 81 toyota pickup i have ripped apart too and plan to put the toyota motor, tranny, and rears under the samurai. Also plan to 4-link both front and rear and slap some coil-overs under it. The only problem i found i might have is being the transmission is much longer on the toyota, the back drive shaft will have to be considerable cut down. I roughly measured it to be around 30 inches long. I thought about extending the frame so i could lengthen the wheel base but i'd like to keep the stock body on it. think i will run into any problems with the driveshaft being so short?? any ideas?

yeah i plan to run the toyota axles. the only thing im keeping suzuki is the frame and body. i thought about that too being on such a sharp angle with the short driveshaft and i plan on buyin coil-overs with like 16-18'' travel. I plan on scrapping my toyota frame and body that i have left over and was thinking of just using some of that frame to extend the frame of the suzuki.

gonna buy coilovers soon. plan on buying 16'' travel. likely fox coils. Think 2.0's will be fine or go with the 2.5's?
