Shame about the rattle can paint job, Looked better green.


Hey don't hassle the rattle can paint jobs.My zook was also painted with rattle cans.It's the best and easier to fix when you get rock rash.

Geez mate, had trouble finding the front left tyre! Impressive flex! Would love to see my "standard" Suzuki Grand Vitara with independent front suspension do that! But then again... if it did, it'd be a pretty good indication that I'd broken something!!! :)

Dont knock the Vitara too much it still does more flex than most 4wd's these days.

At least it's easier to modify for more flex than a Pajero, Jackeroo, a Rodeo or a new Landcruiser!

You can still get some good flex out of ther front. I'm not happy with my springs so I cant get best flex at the front but it's still heaps more than you have now.....

try antt he gets better front flex than me with his OME kit.

i have some flex too :lol:
i think getting the balance between front and rear flex is much more important than just getting heaps of travel.

keep it real, keep it full sick :twisted:

Nice pics... I've seen your before... with the unmistakably original bull bar.

Looks like it'd float with a shape like that! Just have to seal it up :) (I'm not baging it mate, it's a very cool ride)

Yeah I said his front flexes better than mine - not his rear.....

You get those rear shockers yet?? I'll bring the other ones down tomorrow if you haven't :P

sure they aren't hydro rams?

if not i'd love to know more info about his airbag setup. like how many bags, size, line size, how many solenoids, feeder tanks, pumps, tank/line splitters etc etc.

yes its a hydro setup, you can only see a little bit of the upper part of the ram because it goes up through the floor. notice all the pumps in the back ;)
