thanks guys it all looks great

seeing that one from canberra you get an appreciation for how short they really are.

mid wheel sounds like the way to go.

new project

ok

will look at moving suspension back rather than cutting chassis.

might even leave it all together. surely can't effect departure angle that much.

also haven't decided on the donk. should i run td42 or should go something non standard. ie 5ltr or 350 chev or something
