Can a 1800 16 valve and automatic with overdrive from a SideKick or Tracker be installed in a Suzuki samurai What would be involved in this conversion?
Asked by Wiki User
The Sidekick 1.6 Liter 16 Valve conversion is by far the most popular.
The 1.8 conversion could be done but they only used that engine for a couple of years. It is not a popular engine.
I have the 1.6 conversion is a 1986 Suzuki Samurai.
The major components are:
Transmission adapter to connect to the Samurai transmission.
Engine mounts from Sidekick
Oil Pan and Oil Pick-up needs to be cut down unless the Samurai is raised to allow room for front axle.
Computer and wiring from Sidekick must be installed into the Samurai.
All of the engine controls, air filter, MAF, high pressure fuel pump.
There is a speedometer conversion as well. It adds a magnetic (reed) relay to the speedometer and lets the computer know when the car is moving.
-EVERYTHING- moves over from the donor vehicle including (most times) the third member gears because they are lower than a Samurai.
Samurai=3.73
Sidekick (auto)=4.62
Sidekick (Man)= 5.12
All of these items can be purchased separately from several Suzuki aftermarket suppliers on the web.

How do you clean sidekick 3 trackball?
Asked by Wiki User
This is almsot the same but trickier.
Get a regular wooden toothpick.
Break it in half where one end is long, thin, and pointy.
Gently insert it in the crevice around the trackball and move it around the ball like a hook. This will pull all of that stuff out or at least a chunk of it. That's what I did. I was pretty excited too, i got A LOT out. Try it and be gentle, you don't want the toothpick breaking.
Maybe you can come up with your own variation too, like something just as thin and not as breakable like a toothpick.
I hope you guys try this, it really helps a lot.
