plowy wrote:some shots taken yesterday at a truck show this was using overkills buggy ramp wich is apparently steeper than a standard travel ramp so i was told ?

Thats exactly what mine looked like sat arvo at the levels

I can sent you a picture of my xtra cab just PM me.

good going mate you put alot of work into those and they look great but bloody hell there that strong you could bolt a cutting edge to it and grade the tracks as you go

sweet as bud

anyone got any pics of the weekend??

The only good place for a chev is in a speed boat

you will have no probs with 31's as under the new rules they are only 2" bigger than the standard 29's..... but in saying that you are "ment" to get it engineered and in doing so he will just make note of the rim size on the papers.

is that myall lakes??

yeah just did it too mine, its the bias valve..... Where it goes onto the bracket on the axel you just make a spacer up out of flat bar with the length of it the same length as the lift which spaces it back to the position its ment to be at.

.....well thats what i think it would be anyway.

dude just spend the $20 so you can bolt the new one straight in.... in my mind thats gotta be easier

cheers

yeah cant get any pics too work grrrrrrrr

Hey guys, just wanting some ideas or pics of a traction bar setup for my x-cab, its hard to find any pics so I can make one up

Cheers, Sneddo

Plowy you are such a cockbag

Try a roller and (depends how much lift your trucks got) you might need an extention on the handle.

And just i tip if you want to put stickers onto your paint at some stage a trick passed on from the old man is use normal car polish on the area and dont wipe the it off (leave the white dry stuff there) and put the sticker on. They will stay on but leaves a barrier over your paint. Many racing ...

How many Stu??

Yeah go the the RTA website think ist rta.gov.net.au and there is a big list in there in one of the sub folders on the left hand side.

cheers

Why the facination with alloy if there is any doubt just get some 50mm round bar (steel) and drill out the holes on a lathe? Strong as they come and cost me $45- $50 from metaland

Removable keeps them street legal.[/quote]


but chances are they are not removed when you get pulled over..... how many people would only put lights on to go wheeling

One last thing dude... its wise to get it engineered a workmate ran into me not my falt when it got inspected to be fixed they knocked it back with insurance coz it was 2" taller(+) than standard and i was left to foot the bill. I wont do that again. Just be careful thats all.

Remember not ...

Do it properly and spend the $130 and get a steering shaft extention it will do the job the right way, you wont need to lower your blocks (unless you want to) and when the engineer sees it at least he will see you are doing things correctly.
You dont wont to make it any harder for yourself

that was ment to be OR use a rough faced dolly

[quote="ISUZUROVER"]The method I have used before is with an oxy and a water soaked sponge.
Heat up the affected area one small (50c coin size) spot at a time until red hot, then hit it with the sponge. As it cools quickly it should shrink.




My mates old man showed me this way and it definatly ...

Id use 'Etch Primer' clean your surface with prepsol or quickly with thinners spray etch primer on then just use any colour acrylic automotive/panel paint you like skys the limit

he hopefully will pass mine or i will crack the shits

There will be enough length in the brake lines, yes you will need to ajust the radiator, if you have a well back ute the fuel filler may not line up with the cap hole, you may need a steering shaft spacer... engineers like to see one. Ive got a 91 model used to have 35's with 4" body lift and just ...

A pic of it complete

not if you have coolant in it and paint the outside

cheers matt
