i thought u could get offset atlas tcases?

the disconnect i seen wasnt on par :finger:
No you can't get an offset atlas.
ANd the disconect you saw wasn't mine :D

Sam that ZOOK you looked at on the weekend must of been way cool or is it the guys that built it that were cool.
I know one has a cool hair cut and the other wishes he had more hair.
So is it the best ZOOK in OZ or even the best rig in OZ or what ,love to know more.
Good to see you working on that vit and a rule of thumb on moving motors back if you can't change the fan belt while sitting in the drivers set its not back far enough. :D

The Zook in question is by far the best in AUS (at the moment anyway ;) )
And the guys who built it are the hottest Ive seen .
Am hanging to get this Vit finished all my brains and skill are going into this build.

sam - did you make the c4 to rover adaptor?
what are the details of it, does it require a new main shaft in the c4 or does it use a standard c4 with an adaptor?
can you pm me a price on one please
and I take it the rover case is an lt230

the vit does look pretty wild, will it be taken to ttc just in case or to show off your work?


cheers ashley

After looking at the trucks up at TTC we have decided to cut it up again.
Running the dana 60 knuckles is allowing us to get 50 degrees lock front and rear so we have had to cut the front and rear of the chassis off to get the full use of the steer angles. We have also moved the engine back 6 inches and down 4 and am contemplating moving it back another 4 inches.
