Post by chompyd »

Since everyone was Soooooo helpful on my last dilema can i ask a new Question ? Should i coil and a frame or do a spring over or any other suggestions ? Need to get this thing going better than a BLOODY GQ cause the driver sure aint the best !!!! Keeping in mind the money factor .... It doesn't exist oh wait a second... i just found my balaclava !!

Cheers Matt.
I will race again .... one day!

well matt, you see a SPOA will leave you with "bit and peices' to get hung up on. a coil conversion will cost abit, but you will benefit hugely. it depends on what you want to do. i saw your poor attempt at super trucks and i seem to think it might be your driving style not the capability of your truck. oh and vic winch what happened there dude. i think with some small mods to your truck and lots of practice in the bush and you will soon be doing much better. coil the front, give you much better approach and more the axle forward slightly. leave the rear leafs, they seem to be working fine, but i would recomend shocks to suit that leaf set up abit better. youve get the room for longer shocks, so do it. btw i think you should paint the whole thing pink!

Now thats just harsh.

A mate of mine is doing much the same on his 73 series that has now been uted.

Cheezy would be able to assist with your needs on that one.

Another thing may be to take some weight off the top of your rig. Looks to be quite tall when you take the roof line into account.

Nah , he is right i cant drive for peanuts ! but car is also under powered and suspension lets me down and having the auto in the rear doesn't help either, but i'll never drive like a Bowman, Bidders or a Birdy ! Wow the three B's ! But in saying all of that I'll still enter all the comps i can, cause i actually really enjoy the sport , doesn't really matter where i finish in the field. just out having a ball !!
