My old Rig

What was done to that??

ok sweet well im not getting the 60 haha.

im looking at ditching the hightop for a soft top cuz i prefer the look.

what kind of fuel economy did your soft top get? would a normal hardtop get the same as a hightop? and are you running bigger tyres?

I have had a look on google and have found some results around the 8L/100km. I would assume that is for stock sierras? And maybe not on highway?

dude i just clicked on your link. WTF lol. THat is kinda cool. And i did use the search button up the top of the site and got 8 pages of stuff and couldnt find anything.

thanks and yea i have used the search feature.

I spent 30 minutes on google and found a heap of different repsonses so i thought id ask. I got figures all the way from 13l/100km to 25L/100km

Hey guys Just wondering what kind of fuel economy i would be looking at getting doing around 2hrs highway driving? Looking at a soft tob body for my hightop or a 60 series cruiser. I live on southside brisbane and would be looking at going to glasshouse, bellthorpe and most likely into NSW to levuka...

Hey guys Not sure on whether i want to finish my zook or buy a cheap 60 series at the moment. I can get a 60 series with 33's 2 inch lift and whinch bar for around $1500. 4L petrol. Not sure on what would be cheaper so my question is. What kind of fuel economy do 60 series get on the highway and off...

Do they have any hightop sections? Really after just hightop pics at the moment for inspiration.

And ajsr your setup makes me drool lol.
That looks super hot. Is that running WT diffs?

Hey guys Just wondering if anyone that has any modified hightop siera pictures 4wding or stationary?? Iv had a look on google and couldnt really find anything other than stock lol. I need a bit of motivation on what to do to mine. Ive seen i think its ajsr?? The red hightop holden drover thats ident...

haha yea i found that out today. I have a lathe at work so i will make some up there. Or might even fabricate my own sort of thing using booker rod nuts. Dad suggested that and either turning the outside of the hex off most of it if they are long enough or just making the holes bigger to allow the h...

ah ok. Ill go down to the bolt place we use for work and see if they have any female bolts. Anybody know approximatly how long they are? I was going to cut the roof off at the top body line, tack 50x50 RHS/SHS the whole way round the inside of the back at the bottom body line or a little higher and ...

Hey guys. I own a 85 holden drover hightop. I made up some 50mm body lift blocks out of 50mm round bar at work yesterday and was wondering what bolts i will need to put these in? I have heard suzukis run a female bolt setup? I have had a look through the Bible and found the topic on the body lift bu...

I think you would be better off with a tandem. Sierra would probably be the limit on one of those. And you would need a decent size 4wd to tow it unless you can get the load perfect.

My tandem tows great and i have had a fj40 on it without any problems

Just my opinion anyway

awesome. Thanks mate. Might have a look at getting some for the rear of mine when i do more suspension work.

What model triton?

yea no doubt it will get more spent on it over time, just at the moment im a little tight with having to spend $600+ to get my drift car running again lol. I checked out the tyres at work and they appear to be 29inch (had to measure with a plastic ruler as for some reason none of our tapes at work h...

How many kays are sierra's supposed to last? My 94 softy is in pretty bad shape and has done a tad over 200,000kms but I just bought an 85 drover that has done 365,000kms and the body and chassis looks pretty perfect compared to the softy! yea i just got a 85 drover today with 325,000 ish for memor...

You're in NSW where something like that can be legal so of course it isn't a cop magnet. Whereas he is in QLD and it would be. Back to the original poster, once again, why do you think you need a Apia? Just buy a set of 2" lifted springs and put some mud tyres on and you will have a perfectly ...

lol dude i only want 32's as i cant afford new tyres at the moment and i have a set of them with only a couple thousand k's on thgem sitting in my shed off dads car. The tyres on it at the moment are street tyres and would more than likely end up getting stuck at every little mud hole. I know there ...

ok so if i do decide to go spring over whats the chance i will get pulled up on it? A mate from school has been running it since the end of last year and apparently hasnt been done (from what ive heard anyway). I just cant afford to lose my licence as i need it for work. I know people that can get m...

lol nah i like qld. Im only just 18 so im still living at home and have a drift car aswell lol(not that it ever runs). And from what i have seen qld is the drift state :P So are 31's legal on a sierra? And what mods will i have to do to get them under the guards? Hoping to get it on the road for und...

Hey guys.

just wondering in regards to mods that you can do to a sierra how should i go about spring over?

Can it be engineered at all? And what else would i need to do to fit 32's under a sierra/drover?

Thanks
