Default Update! :D

Alrighty, haven't done much to the old girl lately, been too busy with work and the Sydney 4WD Show. But, now that it's all quietened down a bit, time for more mods!

Firstly - Sliders. Ordered a set of the RockCandy ones (just made it onto the end of the fab run). Then they sat in the garage for about a month before getting fitted up. Fitted them over 3 nights with lots of swearing, bloodied knuckles and broken drill bits.

Next - Steering Bits. Replaced the Tie Rod and Track Bar with HD units from Wooders, and the Steering Damper with a HD Foam Cell from Lovells. Then got a rough alignment (castor is still WAY out).

Finally - New Bump-stops and coil-spacers. 30mm spacers from SuperPro for the front, and RE 1" bumpstops from Wooders. Took a little creative thinking to get them fitted, but all in now and good to have two bump-stops again.

Here's how she sits today:




On the list now - Front and rear shocks, shackle relocation brackets, ext. shackles (around 1") and long arms
