No wonder Mike was suprised at the four in his ute shell.
Thanks again.

I have an old roof cut up the back - I will hobble up and have a look later today and see if there are any bows in it

Nice work if you make a couple more I am sure Clay and myself would be happy to take them off your hands

I would assume the EH uni would be the go - if you do the diff swap it might be a good idea to also fit the EH front brakes if available ? I did the EH swap onto my ute and it does make a bit of an improvement - not massive but noticeable.

I would be real interested to see how you go about that mate - I would love to fit a 5 speed in the ute but I don't really want to cut the floor up

As Rob said - the main question is why do you want to swap them ? If its just for a ratio change its far easier to swap the centres - I think the EH diff is the same width as EK so your wheels should fit - if you want to run deeper dish rear wheels then an LJ Torana diff would be a better option as ...

I deal with the public in my present role and I can tell you it's not just customer service that is going down hill.

It really shocks me that this modern world is full of selfish victims.



Getting older worries me sometimes as a lot of the young punks have no morals.

I am going over there next week to see him mate

Yeah - got one at home, the firewall cut I used for setting up the hidden wiper motor and the cable clutch setup etc has those bits - I will check if they are any good when I get home.

He can make ANYTHING- which bit do you need ? Can it be cut out of a wreck ??
