Can you take some measurements for me?
Measured height of those meats?
Whats the wheelbase?
Distance from the ground to your sills??

Oh yes and I am running a club trip on cup day (re-run of the trip I wrecked my tin top on last year)
You will need to have nuki going by then, all fetishes will be catered for (rocks, ruts and mud)

love the sills
Posted: Sat Sep 04, 2004 9:21 pm
The sills have come up a treat, I know you told me on the phone but what thickness are they??
Posted: Sat Sep 04, 2004 10:51 pm
i think it's 3mm from memory. Make sure you allow a full day and a bit to do them properley.
I did mine with the body off and just laid it down on its side to do the welding on the inside edge. It would be a PITA job to do with the body on the car at ground level i would think.
Maybe wait untill you're going to do the cage and pull the body.

Wheelbase 2230mm
Outside edge tyre width 1890mm
Sill to ground 610mm
Tyre height @15psi 870mm
Note:- no seats, roll cage, front clip, approx 1lt of fuel and i did not use a calibrated air pressure gauge or tape measure.
Outside edge tyre width will increase by approximately 65-70mm with 10" rims.
The back is sitting a little lower than the front at the moment, when it's all back together if it still does i'll have to work something out with the rear springs.

thats common after a ruf conversion (higher arch springs using similar mounting points to original), but let it settle before ya mess with it, it may be fine with finished config, and if not, is easy fix...christover

yeh mine did the same, and the winch helped, you also flex the front alot more so it dosnt take long for them to flatten out

if you want flared fibreglass guards get onto mud4b as he is in the process of aquiring them in various sizes
Posted: Mon Sep 06, 2004 5:16 pm
I think that he's only going up to 6 inch. I need to cover at least 14 inches and my wheel arches have been slightly modified to the point that you would need to join two standard flares lenght ways to go around the rear.

I say do the trailor flare thing, it will look otis-style gay but it'd only be for on road.
