Re: tb45 auto to manual conversion

Unless you have a body lift the gq gear box wont fit. I have a gq clutch master cylinder and pedal assembly in mine aswell. It might work out cheaper. Might be best trying to buy and conversion kit from a wrecker.

Re: tripple bypass shocks on gq patrol rear

thanks for the photos. what were you bending? the shock or the mount on the diff? so im better off going with 2.0 smoothies in the rear aswell because i can't modify the shock mounting positions unless im fitting two shocks.

Re: tripple bypass shocks on gq patrol rear

Will the 3.0 smoothies fit in the front without moding the spring tower and shock mount? Other than changing it to suit the eye of a shock rather than a pin i dont i can modify it any more than that unle i run two shocks.

this is the infinity dingo. the spin fx has 8 holes instead of 10 and no bolts around the center. i'm thinking the spin fx is a better looking wheel but can't find any pics of it on google.
