Yeah I think I'll look into doing the U-bolt conversion.
Can anyone give me a part # or recommend a good Uni, also? That one was from Global Auto $22, and didn't last long at all. I think cos the grease holes thru the middle are so big, its sapping the strength.

Rock lights are just cheapo SuperCheap lights! I think they were about $29, They're the smallest ones they do, and no they're not LED.

Is that a kit or a selection of different brands? The shocks look like the Rubicon Express value range (Doetsch, I have them on my rig, decent shocks) but I can't pick the rest except for the 3rds productions sticker on the panhard (their website is down)

Nice Suspension NT BOY

Lower control arms look interesting too ....

Its a shame all those coastal toll roads arent a lot smoother ... considering the cost to use em ...




And ... Did a little bit of grinding and painting this morning.

Anybody looking at fitting the aftermarket swaybar bush kits from Bursons / Repco etc .... will probably need to do a bit of trimming when the bash plate goes back on.

Thanks Guys, all the parts are Rustys offroad, not a kit, "the panhard i had for years". There 4.5inc kits have fixed lower c/arms and didnt have uppers. All i want was too lift the front, it sat half an inc lower then the back.

The arms give it a nice drop.

Tomorrow the engine swap in the '97 should be finished. It is getting the exhaust modified to suit the extractors that came with the second hand engine.
