lowlancer Posted July 13, 2016 Posted July 13, 2016 I've just been watching a million docos on WW2 and I feel like if the russians rolled a million 4age powered hiluxes when pushing the krauts back then the war would have been over a million times earlier cos the germans would have just run scared It sounds like 17 chainsaws being dropped 8 floors into wet concrete, sensational. 3 Quote
Hemi Posted July 15, 2016 Posted July 15, 2016 Hey kpr ( sorry dont know your name), is it cool if i share this around? over here people will lose their fucking minds that a 1600 with a massive vacuum cleaner will tear up bogs and sound off the chain doing so. 1 Quote
cletus Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 i love how this sounds vs what it looks like and is used for. i also find filming suspension interesting, leaf springs flop about all over the place 1 Quote
kpr Posted January 16, 2017 Posted January 16, 2017 yeh the 4 link is super solid compared to the leaves. I've actually had issues with the top 4 link mount, starting to tear itself off and warping the steel, so theres plenty of force on it. it bites fairly aggressively once it spits the mud out for the tyres and finds some grip. rubber bushes on one end of the links, would likely be a bit easier on it. The front has a torque arm from factory, but got ditched when i did the high steer. was expecting it to be a bit sloppy. Static driveshaft angle is a bit off, but seems to correct itself ok when under load. the springs are way too hard, but ditching a leaf or two is going to make the wrapping issue worse. Silly leaf springs Quote
AllTorque Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 Might get a bit of mud up your screamer pipe. Quote

PedRac3r Posted March 3, 2017 Posted March 3, 2017 #Prerunner build is look good Kris! haha. Seriously though, next update should be it jumping the KP... 1 Quote
Mof Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Would 3 link give better clearance? I know it's more limited than your 4 link, not to mention the side swing. But it must free up more space around the axle? I don't know it just popped into my head Look forward to updates as always Quote
kpr Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Its going to be 3 link, with panhard. will have a single link that runs above the driveshaft. it needs to go up fairly high to get the link separation and anti dive numbers where they need to be. will likely have to notch the drivers footwell 50mm or so, and relocate the engine mount. plus some other stuff the diff and steering links are going to hit. most people would just raise the truck up.. at the moment every day i work on it, find another 2 days work 4 Quote
Stu Posted April 23, 2017 Author Posted April 23, 2017 Painting that diff is banned, unless its using paint of the dazzle variety and by variety I mean pink. 1 Quote
Mof Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 You don't shag around. Have you got enough clearance for pitman arm swing? Quote
kpr Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 yeh thats why the front bracket comes off the inside. pretty tight but works. Quote
Mof Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 Missed the last few updates some how Oh man this is going to be such a screaming weapon! Quote
