Re: fitting HT/g wheels?

Mai ki ki, Yeah i tried that after reading your post, but I'm still about 8 mil too short. I guess thats why I started this post as it seems as though others arent having any problems?. Are you running stock running gear? Ive already removed the studs anyhow, just waiting for my new ones to arrive, ...

fitting HT/g wheels?

Gday, Sorry if this has been covered before, but ive done a search and I cant find an answer to my problem. I bought some 14" HT/G rims (at least I think they are :D ) about a year ago and i'm finally getting round to completing the ute. http://i874.photobucket.com/albums/ab310/cplagarn/2011030...

Re: 22inch Ek

I agree, there are far more important things in life to get stressed over. I also dont see why big bird should be the only lucky bugger to get to eat pie! How about we organise an 'eat pie' cruise once kiids car is done, hopefully my ute should be regoed by then and it would be a good excuse to go t...

Re: choped EK ute

Looks like Armstrong St. Nth in Ballarat, I seem to recall seeing that ute at the Ballarat 'fridge' swap last year, it's a nice looking chop and from memory it also has a v8. I'm pretty sure it used to live around the Castlemaine area :?:

Yeah it is a bit of a shame, but its still one of the 'nicer' meets in terms of shade and amenities etc. I guess you can't blame the lions club for trying to 'broaden' the market. Still, ive picked up more bargains there than say Ballarat or Bendigo as it seems to have less of the 'trader' types and...

Castlemaine swap

Anyone else go to the Castlemaine meet today? Is it just me or does it seem like there is almost as much 'bric a brac' than car stuff. Dont get me wrong, I enjoy purchasing the odd figurine and jug as the next bloke :roll: but its a worry when my wife has a better time than me :) . Did manage to fin...

You have got one amazing ute! I can't believe what you've achieved in such a short space of time. Between yours and Blacky's builds mine seems like 'amateur hour'. :)

That's a cool accessory, gives me some ideas for my 11 month old, her little arms and hands might also be useful to get into those tight spots. Theyre also non-unionised and work for peanuts. :wink:

Gday,

*disclosure* I am in no way, or pretend to be an 'expert' :wink: Couldn't you just replace the wheel cylinder? Would save you a lot of stuffing around.
