Plans are to lower it, wheels/tires, tint, fix rust spots, upgrade the cluster and interior, sound deadening, seats and radio. I didnt want 4wd but I'm also impatient so I'll "switch" that off and freshen up the black trim and decals on the exterior, then rhino line the bed!]]> 4 Wed, 25 Mar 2026 12:36:29 +0000 http://minitrucktalk.com/threads/hello-everyone.28454/ http://minitrucktalk.com/threads/hello-everyone.28454/ invalid@example.com (speedman) speedman 1 Wed, 04 Mar 2026 14:04:16 +0000 http://minitrucktalk.com/threads/wnc.28435/ http://minitrucktalk.com/threads/wnc.28435/ invalid@example.com (HeyDude) HeyDude
just wanted to show off my 97’ Mazda Bongo Brawny I purchased in January of this year. I had been eyeing kei trucks for quite a few years now and decided to visit our local dealer, Mayberry Mini Trucks, and see what they had in stock. Upon arriving my truck and an Isuzu Elf150 caught my eye, and after a short test drive of the Mazda I was eager to sign papers and get it home.

I do wish I had done some research before hand as parts are seemingly impossible to come by for the...

It's a chuckle and turns more heads than some high end cars, but I need to find parts.
I've had a bit of a look around and I'm coming up short on bits I need so hope someone here has some gems of advice (apart from sell it and get something newer).
Love the whole Kei thing in general.]]> Fri, 13 Feb 2026 20:49:42 +0000 http://minitrucktalk.com/threads/hello-thanks-for-the-add.28423/ http://minitrucktalk.com/threads/hello-thanks-for-the-add.28423/ invalid@example.com (Psoccio99) Psoccio99

could someone let me know if there are any insurance companies out there that will insure a modified mini truck? Ie. lifted with bigger tires?

thank you for all of your help!

I've had my little White Suzuki Carry Truck for over 20 years now .... I bought it 2nd hand from a farmer .... it is just terrific. It is perfect for my kayak as the tray is so low, I just wheel the kayak up, put the snout onto the tray & go back & lift it off the kayak trolley and slide it onto the tray!

I've protected the top edge of the tail gate with some very heavy plastic, so the kayak doesn't rub the duco.

It's a rather rare car here, parts are an issue, and sadly pretty undepowered by Wild East driving standards.

Joined here, as I want to start a thread of an engine swap project for this car, so let's see how that goes.
Years and years of research went into it, but during those aforementioned years I have noticed a huge lack of Info...

I have the head off and determined that there is no damage so, despite it being pretty well worn, I'm going to just lap the valves and put it back together. I have a timing belt, timing belt idler and spring, head gasket, exhaust manifold gasket, inlet manifold gasket and set of valve stem...

I'm guessing the KT6 is a rare or unpopular model because parts a few and far between. I have been searching through the forum and have already run across @RMAKES posts and videos. Main thing I am looking for at the moment is an engine trap door. I bought one for the TT model, hoping I can make it work.]]> 2 Fri, 14 Nov 2025 19:46:19 +0000 http://minitrucktalk.com/threads/hi-everyone.27243/ http://minitrucktalk.com/threads/hi-everyone.27243/ invalid@example.com (PROTEZist) PROTEZist 2 Mon, 03 Nov 2025 02:04:33 +0000 http://minitrucktalk.com/threads/greetings-from-central-texas.27230/ http://minitrucktalk.com/threads/greetings-from-central-texas.27230/ invalid@example.com (Lighsa) Lighsa Sat, 18 Oct 2025 23:51:00 +0000 http://minitrucktalk.com/threads/cross-canada-trek-in-new-to-us-minicab.27118/ http://minitrucktalk.com/threads/cross-canada-trek-in-new-to-us-minicab.27118/ invalid@example.com (Barkskin) Barkskin
I was a little apprehensive about the drive, but after the Duffey Lake Road, Rogers Pass and Kicking Horse Pass, the wind was at my back pushing me on as Lake Superior came into view. Probably the toughest part was negotiating the hills along the run between Wawa and Sault Ste Marie.

Anyways, now to some simple mods during Winter...

It’s like a TARDIS small on the outside, surprisingly spacious on the inside!

Secondly, there’s the manual transmission and right hand drive. Living in Washington...
