Ute back and Trac-bar

Post by jasonmcc »

Hi

I have a SWB soft top sierra that im building up. Just done spring-over, about to do RUF with chassis extension. Bolting up a Vitara EFI manifold and prob going to put on a 660cc supercharger. Im going to chop the back off it and turn it into a little ute. What sort of sheet metal material do you use to weld on where the back end used to be.

Also I need a Trac-bar (Anti-Wrap bar) what eva you call it. Any one got some pics. I think im going to use a big rod end from Black-woods.


Cheers

Jason

Where did you get the rod end bearing from? Did you strengthen the chassis frame where you mounted the shackle?

Sweet I was looking for pic's of yours the other day. I don't know how practical they are on a daily driver if you don't want to get rained on.

well considering i don't have a back wall in my bac, don't have a roof, don't have wipers or washers mine's not such a good daily driver anyway.

Although Possumhunter put a tray on his Vit with the intention of using it as a daily driver and it worked quite well.
