  1. Sunday had a few hours free for shed time and beers so pulled out front springs and tried to fit some XF falcon front springs but couldn’t get them to fit as they spring diameter is 10mm larger

    The reason for that is the front is about 20mm to low on cut standard springs and rear is 40mm to high needs compressing and I’d had these XF springs sitting for years so tried to use them up front

    Have now decided to get shit done properly and have ordered through BNT pukekohe low springs for front and  standard Springs rear

    once I get the wheels I want I can install new springs and compress down to required height and new bushes etc.The shocks I have are shortened KYBs so can re use those

    chucked on wheels of my old hiace for a laugh

    started it up still running rough.drove onto driveway then turned it off then under bonnet tinkering away 

    go to jump back in drivers seat and hello the alarm locked the car so now it’s sitting in my driveway with the only key in ignition
     

    pretty pissed off at myself because I’d been cautious of that all afternoon till then ffs

    so yeah may as well give it a wash because I’m locked out of the bloody thing spacer.png

  2. Discussion thread

    Hey team.Thought I’d  spark up a project thread for old bluey

    Has been in storage for years.Last Wof reg in 2014.

    Got it back home now as I’ve built a shed.There must’ve been a rat living in the engine bay rat shit everywhere.

    Cleaned all that out and degreased motor.
    Has a fuel issue

    .I can get it running if I poor petrol down the carb Otherwise it doesn’t start.Decided I should pull the fuel tank out drain and clean it and check the pickup for blockage 

    That means pulling the rear AC shit out to remove the tank what a mission

    Current plan is to get it running and drive able

    Get as low as possible on some old school rims

    WOF and Reg.
     

    There is rust around sunroof and rear windscreen which will need fixing
