  1. CHCH boes, would anyone be willing to pick up a ute canopy for me (belfast) and hold on to it while I figure out how to get it up the country? I have some family so possibly have a lawn to dump it on as well but getting it picked up from the buyer is the first goal.
  2. And new shocks all around. 4x4 d21 up front (shorter than the 2wd ones) and Nissan Quest rear shocks in the back which are shorter than the factory ones as well. All bolted straight in and feels as good as a 35 year old truck on bumpstop should feel like ...haha. Front is touching bumps, rear not quite. So need to have a play there.
  3. Lowered the front another 20mm or so, shitty pic sorry Added some foam matting to the tray
  4. Google says they are the same, just different pistons and stoke length. This probably isn't the best forum to ask though, those aren't engines typically played with on here. A Nissan or 4wd forum would be better. Good luck!
  5. Always keen for options!
  6. Reset springs in. It's not actually low but it sites level now now and looks a lot better. New shocks are on the list, these don't have any shock left in them.
  7. Let's not get ahead of ourselves
  8. Anyone interested in buying this? Its not getting used enough and I could really use the cash to fix my other things. Moped rego, nice and reliable for around town nangs.
  9. Oh and @Nominal will love this one, ran over a screw (likely my own considering it only drives in and out of the garage) and put a hole in one of the new tyres. So sat on a spare for a few months before I did anything about it. Got a proper vulcanised repair thingy done to it. So progress, but ended up exactly where I started. Classic.
  10. Progress! Bit the bullet and pulled the windscreen (cracked and rust around the outside). Pretty crusty and a couple of pin holes but should come up OK with a good wire wheel and some welding.
  11. Springs off to the shop. Can't scratch the new paint just yet..
  12. Chuffed how it came out. It's not a show car paint job by any means but it's what I wanted. Still has some dents and dings as I wasn't paying for a full panel job haha. Needs lowering ASAP, have a spare set of leaves I need to do reset.
  13. Official line is no more than half a degree outside manufacturer spec, and if outside spec has to drive satisfactory https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.lvvta.org.nz/documents/infosheets/LVVTA_Info_04-2012_Suspension_Camber_Angle_Guide.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwjlsIeJr6qEAxVSiK8BHUbGArMQFnoECBgQAQ&usg=AOvVaw2TXa5XjvMsW-u1i31FFmeU
  14. The front edge and bottom of front panel was all rusted out. So got a new bottom rail and front panel made up and that's what got welded in
  15. Sheesh, you got off like lightly! Or have you kept all the good ones to yourself?
  16. One more from yesterday And one from wagnats last weeked, photo credit to @Brimmy
  17. It was actually only 2 of us and the third guiding the fuel filler out of the way. But yes, it was heavy haha
  18. Despite my original doubts, the one from the flat deck fitted straight up. Too easy!
  19. Hot dang that's a good snapshot of the weekend. Thanks for capturing the memories!
