weighed my pos today, 1380kg FR 870 R 510 , 63% 37%

so that worked out pretty well ,happy with that still need to biuld a cage ,
But for the extra 240 kg I got four wheel discs ,120 kw 4speed auto,
big power steer , coils , super strong chassis ,big transfer with a 3.32 low range ,and a central diff so i can spin the front up , bigger diffs although
not the greatest reputation on these they are still a heap stronger in the c/v then a zook and a poofteenth larger in axle size , so crossing fingers they will hold up for a little while , they should considering the weight
X fingers :)

Any body see my soft springs thread in tech i need to understand coils better, Help . T o soften the front and maintian ride height i need
thinner wire more coils per foot and the same an loaded height ?

Ramped it today on some lumps , although i thought the rear would be the prob , the front is the one not flexing as it could ,

Larry.

sounds like a worthy trade off, the mods will make up for the bit of extra weight that u've got there

Thanks guys , I,ll try get some together - Im afraid it didn,t get the gaurd treatment i wanted due to a lack of interest from the engineers
so ended up with some flat fender type fenders front , small tray type on rear , but once i get it engineered as it is i,ll work on the guy to do the axle mounted gaurds i wanted , can,t get every thing you want hay :?

fuel pump died this morning :cry: One of those unservicable one,s

well if you have the time and pateince you can pull anything apart ;)
had a small stone in there that siezed it , back together runs like a clock
hehe. :cool:
Is a high presure comode one , they are like a miniture blower inside :shock:
