Mini Truck (SE01 EP12) 250lb front strut spring install test. Will a 6'4” tall person fit? HiJet

Install the 250lb front springs on the mini, it was 10” to the bottom of front diff and 26 5/8“ to the wheel arch. After the 250 lb springs were installed it was 10 5/8” to the bottom of front diff and 27 ½“ to the wheel arch so a 5/8” to 3/4” lift.
***YES, THE STRUTS ARE WARN, ORDERED NEW***
Had a friend who is 6'4” sit in the mini to show how much room is in there with a tall person. Plenty of head room, not much leg room.
I also finally test the LED's at night, needs another light bar!

Hijet Climber Mini-truck, this one is a 1992, 7th Gen, S83P, 660cc Minitruck. The “climber” means it has rear axle lock. Amir has about 60 units in stock, he was very helpful.

Researching online I did find l lot of information, but Amir explains a LOT more than I knew, he has been in the business for 15 years. Plus if Bubbles in Trailer Park Boys has one, it HAS to be cool!
Don't forget you're buying a used vehicle, check it all out, they're over 25 years old! Some are in much better shape than others. Check for leaks, CV boots ripped, Loose suspension, Clutch slippage, clunks etc. Just like any used vehicle
S83p specs:
660cc 4 vavle 3 cyl engine 48-53hp carburated
weight: 1500 lbs
length 10'8" (128"). width 4'6" (54") w/o mirrors. Height 5'10" (70")

I purchased mine at Boeki USA, www.boekiusa.com has their updated inventory. Ask for Amir and tell them MOTOCHEEZ sent you! They also have a west coast shop!

I know there may be other videos of this.. but this is my Cheezy style!

More info (Wikipedia):
The Daihatsu Hijet (Japanese: ダイハツハイゼット) is a cabover microvan and pickup truck produced and sold by the Japanese automaker Daihatsu since 1960. Despite the similarities between the Hijet name and Toyota's naming scheme for its trucks and vans (Hiace and Hilux), the name "Hijet" has been in use for Daihatsu's Kei trucks and Microvans since 1960, over two decades before Toyota took control. "Hijet", when transliterated into Japanese, is very similar to "Midget", one of Daihatsu's other mini-trucks. The Hijet competes in Japan with the Honda Acty, Subaru Sambar, Mitsubishi Minicab, Suzuki Carry and the Nissan Clipper.
