Hi Clay;
Mate for some reason you seem to have a lot of room from the side of your seat compared to mine I will take a photo and show you or maybe I am just imagining it :crazy: :crazy:

Yes was wondering about that Neil. Seem to remember yours was tight. Mine just touches the pillars at the top when it is pushed right back. It's the original seat out of the car retrimmed. A photo would be interesting.
Cheers
Clay

For some reason my iPad keeps crashing out of Tapatalk when I try and scroll between posts 1720 and 1730. Maybe it’s because there are so many posts, I’ve broken the internet!?!

Nutsert gun came quick.

Ute and I are banished from the shed until the fumes are gone. I figure it takes four hours for it tok go off. Mozzies seem to like it.Image

Looking the goods mate , don’t forget the little chrome bizzos before you screw that plenum cover on .....
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

You read my mind blacky. Pesky FBs. I should have had a cast around when I was at Dudley's the other day as I'm one short.

Let me know how the rivet gun goes - been thinking of adding one to the kit - more for the FJ than the ute - hard to know where the quality starts in those as the cheap ones are absolute poo.

Had a troll but couldn’t find any. Shitloads at duds but it’s a four hour round trip and a bit of work to get off without cutting the panel or breaking the pins. Time for a rummage and maybe try and repair broken pins unless anyone has a couple they are willing to part with?
