  1. grabbed some 2inch blocks to drop the ass end the ones i got had the wrong locating lug size but got them swapped for the right ones whole job was so quick and easy with a hoist and rattle gun that i got no photos during the install on the hoist for a wheel alignment wheel alignment data (toe was way out due to dropping the front so much back in the same spot for comparison [
  2. have you checked for a fuel leak from the tank or fuel line?
  3. ive dropped the front 3.5 inches so far handles fine as it is and if i drop the back and level it out its still gonna look high as so might just keep the rake its got for the moment at least
  4. lipped the front guards to stop it rubbing when it hits a bump, much better now. rides better with the front lower doesn't feel like its going to fall over quite as much
  5. painted the head light surrounds and wing mirrors dropped the front down another inch still has 50mm of travel at the wheel all going well, will drop the back next week
  6. what did you do to get this much bad luck kill a black cat under a ladder with a broken mirror while opening an umbrella inside?
  7. no im far to uncoordinated to play any instrument took a lot longer to find a pic of checkered drum kit than i though it would as well
  8. mentioned earlier that i stole your idea and can confirm it is quite distracting/head fuck to stare at when lounging in the back
  9. after many emails and some social engineering i have obtained a mix of random stickers for the van stay tuned
  10. power steering takes HP to run ditch power steering/get bigger arms and go faster win win

  14. week end progress pulled off carb, intake and exhaust mani's to fix exhaust leak and a little intake leak supercheap even had a 5k/4k/3k/2k intake/exhaust gasket in stock for $6. cleaned carb and intake while i was at it blocked of hotbox/carb warmer from exhust bolted all back together nice take off up the road sounds nice, all good loose all power and limp home around the block blow the crap out of the main and idle jets take for another drive all good again polish up the tridents and give her a wash pinched someone elses idea of checker roof lining (cant remember who it was, Sexyminor maybe?) got back two sections done then ran out of spray glue , will get more and finnish it off soon pics when i get home/ can be bothered

  17. factory rims are 13 inch mags are 14, so its a whole 25 mm bigger yeah the lack of tyres makes them look smaller spent this morning tinting her out - pix soon(ish)
  18. had a play with the torsion bars today Before after - need to get some drag slicks on the back for a laugh some bits fell out in the process put the bumpstops back in till i get shorter ones and get the rear spring flipped oh hi da brown town inner bits huge storage potential tried on the tridents should fit alright
  19. got the 5k humming along good now so heres a cartoon version
  20. yeap leaf rear going to either flip the main spring or run 2 inch blocks might have to "adjust" the bump stops aswell
  21. 4.5 to 1 rearend and only a four speed makes for 120km\h top speed without ringing it out constantly. may need to find a better rear end ratio or put some bigger tyres on the rear sod it, may as well find a 5 speed.
