You may not be able to steel it with this method but if you remove the two bolts that hold on the ignition switch to the steering column it will  unlock the steering and you would be able to drive it.  If i wanted to steal a sami i could in 5 min but i have my own and i have morals

I think that's what prevents most people from stealing stuff, the moral because having one samurai doesn't mean you can't have more :)

I think that if some pro car thief was high enough to think that steeling a sammy would be worth it, He wouldn't use a little Phillips screwdriver and a 10mm wrench or what ever you need. He would use the "any key" BF flat screwdriver in his pocket and smash the lock in 4 seconds just like any other car.

  No offense but most thieves know a sammy isnt worth a dime ,isnt fast to get away ,or common enough to blend in
Isnt that the truth hahahaha.

would be quite entertaining to see some one hot wire it, take off, and realize that it doesn't steer, but if you have about 8 people you could just pick it up and run with it......
I did that with mine and 4 ppl. We picked it up and turned it around on the spot. Funny but the front end is heavy.

The home boys i know use a little better class of tools,a small pickup,a knife and a 2wheel dolly,back pickup and dolly in front of sammy and take knife out and look at it ,put it back up and unsnap top and open either door and put transfer in neturall and push on dolly,one tie strap and gone,1 min 7 sec total.However the manuel does say to stop a short dist away and strap both wheels for high speed pulls...................

After losing my keys I tried smashing in my ignition switch - them little buggers are tough! After thirty mins of smashing it I just decided to hotwire it, took less than a minute to do. Also for the honest people out there if you've really lost your keys and need to turn the wheel just turn the wheel really hard. With enough force you'll break the steering lock. These things weren't exactly built like tanks.
