Interesting. I have broken two long side cvs while locked front and rear within a short timeframe. That was running three inch springs with 2" spacers and those fts struts with spacers too. I've taken out the spacers now but haven't used the truck for a few weeks. The lockers seem to help, but I ...

Where are you getting heavy duty rear axles? The Calmini HD axles are only for the older Trackers. You have the same axle I have. I know because I ordered them and had to send them back. The wanted me to convert my rear to an older rear to uses them. My feeling is the newer Tracker axles like ours ...

Hi Skitime Thanks for your comments. I have seen your Tracker in a few forums and, as you know, we love your rear bar! How do you find the spacers on top of the 3" lift - does that take it out to 4"? Any problems with CV angles or busted CVs? Hope to see you in NZ sometime, there's a lot you can do ...

Yes I remember. Small world. Here is a picture so others know what you were talking about.

I just got done reading through your thread and thoroughly enjoyed it . I found your path on developing your rig very similar to mine. I have a 97 Geo Tracker with many of the same mods here in the US. I have the Calmini 3 inch suspension OME struts with a 2 " body lift. I have added spring spacers ...

That would be awesome. I have a daughter working at the University of Queensland, Australia. She has been trying to get me over there for a visit. Offroading in New Zealand would be another good reason to make the trip.

tycho thanks for the link to the great pictures. Makes me wish I could get my rig down to NZ. I spent a long time looking through the pictures. thanks again.

Hi, I found your forum and love seeing what other countries are doing with their rigs. I live in Pennsylvania, USA. I have a 97 Geo Tracker or a 3 door Suzuki Vitara in your country. We gotten into offroading when we started towing the Tracker behind our motorhome on our annual trips out to western ...

I have just found your forum and enjoy seeing what the rest of the world is doing with the Suzukis. I have a 1997 Geo Tracker or a 3 door Vitara in most of the world. It has been heavily modified for offroading. We spend a month or more each year traveling to western USA to offroading the Rocky ...
