i think there's still atleast a coil to loose there and add the blocks
did you know that it's law to speak in inches when refering to these cars people that don't understand don't matter

cool ute..

will look real good when you lower it...

Gave the ute tray a bit of a birthday on the weekend very dirty job with the wire wheel and the a once over with the KBS system. Aqua Kleen, Rust Blaster and Rust Seal (same as POR and Aussie made)
Fitted the 2 inch lowering blocks to the rear, maybe ½ a coil more on the front.

Patchwork on the fuel tank is OK for now (liquid steel), may make one good tank out of the two as the wagon tank has a good top and a heavily dented bottom.

Got the front rims going to Summerville Engineering on Monday to reset the backspace to 3 ½ inches, should be ready when I get back from work (no more spacers)

Life is good

Got given an old side shift shaft, (thanks Jamie) after reading Thommo’s post I made some brackets cleaned up an old crash box and fitted the shifter.

This site is a great source of info, I had to buy the angle so if anyone needs a bit let me know I have a heap left.

Next time home looking at making up a centre shifter will use heavier gauge rod o thick flat.

Nice ute Gazza, good to catch up yesterday.

I might try 14's on my ute to drop the revs on the highway!!!!

cheers

Gazza,

That yellow ute with the flames you've got in the background, If I'm not mistaken it's a burnout ute. I think you bought that from my mate James off eBay?
That must of cost a bomb to send it over from the East coast.

Pretty tuff sounding ute as well.

What plans do you have for it?

Ya got a good eye Scoobb

I bought it of James (I thing that was his name) its a burnout ute.

Sounds very tuff, not to sure on the plans yet, may sell it as I would like to buy EKDV8's sedan. Bought it to race / burnouts ect.

Had the engineer look over it, but it would take a bit of work to register, I have all the bits but no time till the wagon is done.

Cheers

Cool, get that Wagon going.

Cheers Dave

I would not change a thing on ya ute its awsome, maybe another diff ratio, the sound when you took off still rings sweet.

Great article in the Gasoline mag I picked it up today, awsome picks

Well done,

Cheers

Gazza

Nice work on the ol' shifter

Wish I'd known you were back home Gaz................could done with a cruize in the Wagon!
Back to work tomorrow
Will catch up again soon
