TUFF60, it's coming along nicely. It looks very
as an extracab at that height. Keep the pics coming and have you got any from side on?
Interested in how you have finished off the rear corners of the cab????
Like I said it looks very sweeeeet

just a few questions , what sort of leaf pack are you running reasonably flat or not ,
also ive got 37's not 38's but soon
under my 60 and they tuck in nice after the fork lift treatment , but i am wondering have you trimmed your front guards and have you modded your inner guards.
But wait there is more can you give me you height from the ground to you roof gutter roughly in a line directly above you dorr handle for example pls.
Like i said looks the goods

This looks real good. I think I'll have a crack at this myself. Any other photo's you can post of the job would be invaluable.

She's a big girl at 2200mm , but i guess youve got rid of all the weight of the back .
do you know what your articulation is like ?

Looks bloody fantastic...
Good to see you plan to do some comps...
Now, where were those flex shots

It seems to flex allright. Im trying a few different spring set ups and its looking good. With the front working fully and the rear only compressing half way, was able to lift the front wheel 44 gallon drum hight.
Not sure what to do to the rear 4 Link or buggy leaf. Any thoughts

I say go the buggy first as its heaps easier to do than the 4 link and you'll get mad flex. Then when you're sick of it down the track go the 4link.
You will be on the trail quicker with the buggy set up aswell, less fab/ measuring etc.
Would like to go buggy on mine someday when I have time and money. Might have to wait awhile though............

Gone the buggy. 60 rears up front with 2 inch longer shackles. NICE
