fitting in a zook

Post by XXXL80 »

does anyone know if there is much involved in re mounting the drivers seat in a zook?? im looking at buying an old clapped out zook and building it up, but im 6'8 tall and as they are standard there is no way i will fit in one of these little buggers but what can i say i just love em and have always wanted to build one up so i was wondering if there is much involved?

I am 6'6 and and have made room for myself.

All I did was fitted a sports steering wheel with an extension spacer for the boss machined up out of alluminium (Similar to a wheel spacer)

The wheel clears my knees quite well now.

I'm happy with the room

I'm 6'2 or 3 ish and have swift gti seats in mine. I've often toyed with the idea of a seat drop. wouldn't be to hard to do i don't think.

I'm 6'4" and i fit in a Zuk ute! I'm using a Marsh racing seat that is very upright and i clear the stock steering wheel fine.

You should be able to play around with the mounting of a seat quite easily as the seat mounts can be adapted with a metal plate and redrilled to put the seat further back without too many dramas
