ey guys i'm looking to make a MQ comp truck and i wanaa make a ute.
has eny1 got eny tips & pics of how to cut the back off??
and seal it bak up ??
thanks Alex

how to cut the back of.... 9-inch for the rough cut, 4-inch for the finer details. when the canopy is removed, keep the part where the bolts go into the roof intact and just run your cut flush from that straight down.

you might want to bend the metal slightly after cuttinf to give abit of a curve on the edge, or just leave it and finish with a square edge.


to seal it back up... either bog up the body and fab up a rear wall that will fit inside the cab, or cut a rear wall that will fit flush with the outside of the body and weld it on (2nd slightly harder, as it would want to be spot-on to look good, but if done right it will look heaps beta)


keep me updated on how you end up doing it, coz i wanna do the same to mine down the track but im not sure which option ill take for putting the back wall/window onto the bod...

Raced against a sic little shorty MQ at Cliffhanger this year, had a stock RB30 in it with the back cut off just behind the seats. The roll cage formed the back wall and it ad a very simple rear try to keep it real light. Very cheap way to build a comp truck! Good luck with it.

i have front and rear arb lockers ready installed in 4.6 diffs, im yet to readvertise them in the for sale section, let me no if your interested, as for the cab i was going to do the same thing and have already started im local to you and your more than welcome to have a look what i have done or even take some of the bits of my wreak (its just going to the scrap yard)

estimate price on the diffs? compressor and lines also? Any other bits?
