angle shoudl be ok! mine was but soem people suffer small vibes! swap your rear tailsahft end for end around so the skinny end is at gearbox end as it will then clear rear brace!! and you will def need to notch front crossmember!

cheers mate that helps heaps,! i thought they looked factory mounts and the definantly are then? one last question! you know how the old mount had the bolt go through the mounts and the arms and then through the chassie!! is the same idea used for new mounts! do i need to drill through the chassie a...

thanks 1MadEngineer i think the long arm setup is the way to go? im guessing the mounts weld on and what happens to the original upper arms? do they just stay as they are standard? and also do you just grind off the old lower control arm mounts(chassie ones), because im assuming the long arms will h...

mine dont have anything and its a 1999 GU TD42 but my mates 2002 4.8 has them! i think it is soemthing to do with ABS! cause the bracket things are for the abs lines to run down to the disc!

just curious to see what people RTI is and with what set up they have! so post up your set up-ramp degrees and RTI score and see what we have?

I put some aftermarket seats into my gu, i was goin to modify the bases etc, but that kinda falls under the "illegal" side of the law here in vic. I had to end up buyin bases off Paratus seats, $170 each. More than i wanted to spend, but, they have the "ADR approved" sticker on ...

Snake racing do 13mm tailshaft spacers

would work to a point but the best and only real fix is to cut away a section and put piping in there to give it its strenght back!
