Greenie Posted February 18, 2015 Author Share Posted February 18, 2015 finally a new page!!so now that the suspension as settled itself the car sits a little lower on the drivers side, but cant really tell tbh,and lately the tires have been rubbing quite a bit so yesterday i took the inner plastic guard out but it was still happening today, in fact i think it was worse because it was against the metal, so in any case i decided i needed to fold the lip and pull the guard out just a bit... results are as follows tools of the trade cheers guys, catch you up! discuss here 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Greenie Posted March 11, 2015 Author Popular Post Share Posted March 11, 2015 So i got the ute from the tow company today and as soon as i got it home i tore it apart to see the real damage, and luckily enough for me there is no chassis damage!!and the engine itself seem fine too all suspension and steering components are all still in tacked and working fine managed to straighten abit of the wheel-well out with a fence strainer and a tree... worked quite well both radiators are fucked so they camp out too SO, all in all it not as bad as first thought before during after and almost all the shit i need to replace and the best part is the doctor said i can have tomorrow off, and with friday saturday being my usual weekend, i have three more days to get stuck in!!discuss here 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenie Posted March 29, 2015 Author Share Posted March 29, 2015 Ok so i had a couple of days off this week so was able to get a little bit done. jamie took me to see a mate of his and i was able to score heaps of parts that i really needed for the ute. got a bonnet, 4x4 guards, back window(with sliding window), bonnet latch, lights and light buckets as well as a grill. also managed to pull the front bar off the car so i could work on straightening the wheel-well and although it was my first time panel beating and it tool a bit longer, i think it turned out pretty good, well its getting there. and i put one the the guards on the good side of the car and they seem to look alright but i might end up running 15's just to fill up all that space. discuss here 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
