Hi Sam, you still about big fella?

You vehicle looks great. A bit like a go cart but hey, 35 's + should fix that. Maybe a wheelbase stretch! Very Happy

Are your coil overs adjustable for height?

If you don't take the body lift out then there is a brilliant opportunity to chop the chassis behind the rear panhard mount and raise that dam petrol tank.

Cheers, G

P.S. I bought the JTop, Rolled, V6, locker.... $400 Very Happy

Hope it goes!

been working on it steadily all week, but run into some problems.

went and got bolts for the coilover mounts... even tho i supplied a sample they still supplied the wrong ones and arnt open again till tue so im off to hunt a couple of other places tomorro. found the 60 series ball joint doesnt fit into the prado pitman arm, so going to try a prado balljoint tomorro.also fount the tierod is hitting on the panhard mount on right hand lock. so going to have to take some off that till it clears.

on the up side, the power steering box is plumbed up. got the connectors for th toyota box off a surf and took the old lines into a hydraulics place, $15 later and they were done. no cooler at the moment, but will have before long, and the ifs hub swap is finished.

hopeing i make some decent progress tomorro as i feel like i havent made stuff all today!
