HAVE a Honda 450 4x4 quad -----and a jeep CJ7 4x4 with lockers etc.

Wanting something 4x4 bigger than the Honda Quad and smaller than the jeep. Don't want one of those expensive Gators-Big Red etc.

Maybe build it myself with help of a qualified friend. At least two passenger maybe a back seat. Small 4 cyl. engine with shaft drive.
Thanks
 
you want a Geo Tracker or Suzuki sidekick.
I use ours just like a gator. It's an auto 4x4 that even my 10yr old drives around the farm in 4w low. I've got a 2 in suspension lift (coils) on it that I got in e-bay for under $200, with 31x10.50-15s on it ( I was running skidsteer tires on it for a while). Pull the rear tailgate off and remove the backseat it it has very usable bedspace- yank all the carpet and it's as all weather as a gator but with steroe, heat, ac, wipers, etc. I've got under a grand total in mine
 
Suzuki Samurai. 4cyl engine, hi low range 4x4 1300 cc engine uses 1/2 the gas of a 4 wheeler. Much narrower ans shorter than a Jeep. Easy to tow. Roof rack with steel carrier. You can buy one from me for 1800.00

Gordo
 
Yeah, I love those things. Very well built, not counting the thin frame. I've got four. All but one are manual trans with five-speeds. Suzuki made them jointly with somebody in Canada. A company names "Cami." All of mine carry the Chevy Geo Tracker name on them.

I've seen two with Volkswagen diesel engines stuck in. There are adapter kits available. Makes a neat little farm rig that runs on heating oil/farm fuel.
 
My father-in-law has been looking for a sidekick because gators/mules etc. are so pricey. That diesel swap and some red fuel would make the perfect parts runner.

Now I'm wondering if my wife would notice if I swapped the engine out of our Jetta TDI into our 4Runner. I always hate wrestling feed sacks out of the Jetta's trunk when I don't take the 4Runner or the truck.
