Hey mitch didn't realise that it was u. Mate i got all the photo's of the build up from start to where it is now. gonna post them as a build up when i figure out how to. U maybe able to talk to graham bout that lockrite as he'll be the new owner of it this week and its alredy set up for the rear. Gonna try gettin the paint finished for trials and a few little gremlins sorted so she''ll be reliable+try and get as much seat time as i can before then. the auto got put in the to hard basket :cry:

Graham have you worked out how much it'll cost too fix the air locker you've got? i just want too know how much you'll sell the lock-rite for?
I got my body lift kit today, going in saturday! got extended brakelines, tailshaft spacer etc coming from states, but prob wont be here till monday :(
Cant wait all im needing is the rear locker an im pretty well set.
