Welcome back. Sorry about your health issues but very glad to hear you are doing better.
#2
So I'd like to start by apologizing. A lot of you all have been great to me over the years. Over the last few years In PA I've become disconnected from the community. We've embarked on our return to Arkansas and hopefully return to events and such. Along the way I've ran into some hurdles.
This next part is tough. I'd like to start by reaffirming that God is good. And things tend to work out.
About a year ago I thought I was developing one pneumonia. Turns out it was sudden onset acute heart failure. I was down to an 11% ejection fraction. My heart only moved 11% of its volume with every pump at 140 BPM. It came on over the course of about 10 days. My heart was failing and full of iron. Long story short. Multiple cardiologist sent me  8) home. The Cleveland Clinic sent me home with hospice orders last April. Dad passed around the same time. I'm on 11 prescriptions after never taking any. I'm improving by the day. I have more tests coming up. But I'm optimistic. I was told to get my affairs in order. And to not worry about the new shop build.
Today it's nearly done. And I'm back in the shop. 
I miss you all. But I'll be back.

Two questions....
1 Is there any new ones avail.  I notice there are several dist assemblies for sale on Ebay but none say that they have the ignition module inside.

2 Does the OEM module do any electronic advance? 

Thanks,

Jim, Bigfootford.

Got Questions? / Death wobble
Last post by Red_Dirt_BOY - Dec 18, 2024, 09:06 PM
My 87 sammy has developed a death wobble at around 35 to 40 mph. She is pretty much stock height. When making right hand turn i hear knock when making the turn. I suspet its the axel baring, but would this cause the death wobble? Im thinking about purchasing the axle baring kit and wondering if this will solve my issues any thoughts will be appreciated
Thanks

Welcome aboard! I've had my 88 since 1992. It sat for a lot of years as I thought I had a major electrical issue. Turned out being the small ground wire at the negative battery cable to the body. :o

Fast forward, it's still mostly stock with the exception of some things I've bought from MY to upgrade. Namely, MS2 carb and YJ spring conversion. Has gears in the third members and xfer case. Also has the snatch xfer case cradle from ZOR.

Welcome and I'm sure you'll find something. I see plain-jane Samurais on craigslist a lot here in Texas.

The ZORUM is a great place but we lost the old one which was a literal treasure-trove of information and fun. We'll get this one built up though to be just as good.
