What was the thoughts of the legalialty of your body lift?
Also did the engineers have much to say ie do x y z to ensure it complies ( apart off rom the spring washers)

There is not much too it mate, as along as the blocks are the same diameter as what is on the body with spring washers, zinc plated bolts there is no drama..

Got stuck at work today and didnt end up getting the wheels on but its booked in for next week saturday! I did the ring around and best price I found was $28 per rim and tyres fitted and balanced.. plus 60bux for wheel alignment. Sounds reasonable..

Well noticed I had a little oil around my diff so I decided to top it up.. so I dropped some oil to clean the nut at the bottom and found 2 small pieces of the center lsd gears..... I think I will need a new different soon :-( it still runs the same no difference so far

Good to hear its still o.k..do you give it a hard time?

Yes and no mate it's still the original diff and has done 190000k so it hasn't done too bad I guess but the LSD stopped working awhile ago

Im sure mine stopped being a lsd at 50k...there not the best....least parts are getting cheap

I was considering putting the harrop true track LSD in it.. Just upgrading the internals as for swapping it out I'm not sure what other diff will bolt up to it

 

[camo.b]

More swap it out for a 2nd hand diff.I think the True track would be a good fit.thats on my list when the day comes.

Ok guys the wheels are on! I have also taken the side steps off maybe ill paint them black and put them back on but I like the look of it.. all I have to do now is maybe plastidip the bullbar black until I get my xrox bar! What you think guys? The tyres im running now are 265/75 r16 with -20 offset. Im a little worried that they stick out too much and would like some opinions

And thanks to nathand22 for his guide on wheels rubbing on guard which was fixed nice and easy..
