  1. sweet brew, better to get a few quotes first to know what you are working with
  2. copied off some site: There will be a "trans / axle" line on the build plate, and it will say G52 (or something like that) then a space and G-something else. It will be G followed by: 07 = 3.900 08 = 4.110 10 = 4.375 14 = 4.875 25 = 4.556 28 = 4.300 29 = 4.100 31 = 3.91 38 = 3.42 43 = 3.56 54 = 3.90 66 = 3.07 Followed by: 2 = 2 Pinion, Open Diff 3 = 2 Pinion, Limited Slip 4 = 4 Pinion, Open Diff 5 = 4 Pinion, Limited Slip (I have a G142 code for expample)
  3. haha well I don't know if I'm a good example. For nats I was running 14x8s with 185/55s. I have a 4.875 diff and never used 1st gear, effectively making it a 3 speed. 60 on the speedo was all good, and the vibrations started at about 80. Japanese 'ding' came on at 105km. I think I got it up to 130 on the speedo a couple times, but the speedo was out by over 20% so prob just cracking 100 with that. By the way, this is unbearable, but at least it looked good. I now have some 14" steels with 195/60s - still dont use 1st accept for crawling up hills/slow as traffic. Hope this helps. ps, I am going 5speed when the new engine goes in, and will alos get a 4.1 or 4.3 diff.
  4. Crane will be the only option here. I think Loz talked to her mother and she said it would be cheaper to use a wgtn based crane rather than one of Crouchers. in saying that I think Jude has some contacts for the wgtn work they do so will hit up Loz again
  5. Ah right. I thought that was the plan but seeing it wheeled out of the garage I needed to ask. Tis such a sweet job. It's all in the prep though; love your panel gaps.

Good to see you keeping on top of the rust, both mine suffered from it pretty bad. You gonna paint it original colour?
