Has anyone got any info or know of any Holden Rodeo spacecabs with rear seat? We are looking at buying a Spacecab Rodeo but need to know if we can get a rear seat fitted for kids?
Who makes them?
Are they Legal?
Is anyone selling one?
Any help with this is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Raymond

Has anyone made a gearbox crossmember for a TH350 auto in a toyota landcruiser? It has the Marks adaptor between the box and transfer. I havent done one of these before and was wondering if anyone has and if they can tell me how to make one or if they have pics even better. I have sent an email to ...

I have seen one that had a V6 but he used the auto box aswell. You can get an adaptor for the auto to go to your transfer from Marks Adaptors. I am not sure about an adaptor to go to the 5 sp manual in the cruiser. Mabe check the Marks adaptors site.

Redline could probably help. I dont have thier number but they are near Bundamba (Ipswich). He builds a lot of speedway cages.
I bought 1 for commodore vs falcon class and his workmanship was very good.

I would like to hinge mine at the bottom. Mine is the 82 model and only has 1 hinge piece on the tub not 2 like the earlier models.

If your 308 is bored out 80 thou the walls of the bore would nearly be nonexistant. has it been resleeved? The most I would go on a 308 is 40 thou. I was told by an engine builder with bores too thin that will cause heating troubles for a start. Have your bores been sonic tested for thickness?

Was at DON KYATT 4WD SPARE PARTS today & they had sockets made for these. front & rear were diffrent sizes. 1 was $27 & the other was $37. You can find thier add in 4WD MONTHLY. They have 1 in most states.

I have a V6 vn & my cousins V8 statesman has no more power than mine. the V6 I think is the best way to go & a hell of a lot cheaper. If you want a bit more power put a chip in the computer & they go even better.

Thanks guys. at least now I have an idea what to do so I dont waste money.......

Its hard to say mate. Ive been going to swaps for years and you never know what you will find. I have been to small ones that were great & big ones that had absolute shit.
