[WogBoyz]

sweeet another vs ute man ive lost count now lol, got any pics mate?

[MADDNE33]

sorry forgot to post pics haha

here she is mate.



Thats the day i got her, paid 6500 for her with just under 250,000 on the clock, 100% stock.



I semi de-badged her as u can see, the holden badge came of but took abit of paint with it so back onn the badge went , alos with the torneua i broguth from supercheap for $160



Paint job is very neat for the age and travel this car has had






Well thats her guys, hope u like it as much as i do. Any tips would be great cheers

[MADDNE33]

This is how low i want her to sit, you recon ssl on the back and sl on front wil do this for me? I think this bloke has just that and also had his springs reset and airbags inside the springs on the back.


if the owner of this ute would like me to remove this pic plz let me no.

[WogBoyz]

[ParkwayDrv]

[Jonnii]

spend the extra money and get new shockers aswell. looks great by the way very similar to what mine looked like when i first got it. Maybe get some chrome wheels lips to go round your stockies

[ParkwayDrv]

LOL @ my crap photoshop skills...

I noticed your in WA how long till you get your p's?

[ChappyVS95]

Good lookin ute mate, Yea the Vs look mean..and your from W.A aswell? awesome youll have to bring it along on the next cruise whenever that is

[ChappyVS95]

I see you lost the hard cover for the torneua, mine came with a new torn but im lookin at a hard cover, you sellin yours? :P

[MADDNE33]

nahh sorry mate never had a hard cover unfortunetly only the torneua.

thaqt photoshop look mad thnx mate. exactly how i want it, will keep the ceptors for a while till i save the dough for some new rims..

[WogBoyz]

I see you lost the hard cover for the torneua, mine came with a new torn but im lookin at a hard cover, you sellin yours? :P

i got a hardtop here that i want to get rid of, however your quite the distance from me lol

[ParkwayDrv]

you can get some monroe gt shocks for ~$150 a pair, thats what i got in mine

it'll be good to see it out on some cruises soon, rep the vs's

[boonga]

you need struts for the front too it cost me $750 for lows and shocks and struts not fitted from autobarn

[VS-S-PACK-UTE]

hey mate if u check out my cars page n scroll down to the bottom set of pics u'll get an idea of what ur car will look like on ssl's. i have the standard shocks in mine and its bumpy as so u may want to spend that extra money n get shocks, thats up 2 u. but yeah really nice ute mate, keep us posted.

[MADDNE33]

ohh ok so il def need new struts?

the guy at ian difens said its not nessecary for new shocks at first but ill prob go the whole thing e.g shocks struts and springs in one hit so its done all at the same time properly

[BENJAMUM]

thats would half 2 be the cleanst white ute i have ever seen man wil look good dumped

[MADDNE33]

yo vs-spack-ute, ive read your build before and ute looks realy tough ,on those springs.

are they sl front and ssl back? and also r they just springs replaced and not shocks??

cheers man

[MADDNE33]

thats would half 2 be the cleanst white ute i have ever seen man wil look good dumped

thnx mate, people always complement the paint job on first view of the ute, cant wait to dump her haha

[VS-S-PACK-UTE]

yo vs-spack-ute, ive read your build before and ute looks realy tough ,on those springs.

are they sl front and ssl back? and also r they just springs replaced and not shocks??

cheers man

hey mate, in them picks its hard to say coz i have kings in the back SSL's n the front were pedders, i have since replaced with SSL's in the front and it dropped another 5 or so mm, thats all. yeah mate i didnt replace the shocks, but i have noticed that they bare the monroe symbol on the rear ones so they may have been replaced by the previous owner. as to if they are heavy duty or standard or shorter i do not know. cheers mate, will look nice once its lowered.

[MADDNE33]

yer thnx mate,

whats the go wit the parnhead rod?

go for an adjustable one or just bend the old one?

[VS-S-PACK-UTE]

hey mate, yeah i replaced mine with an adjustable one, only cost like 120 or sumthin by memory. coz i have 235's on the rear, the right hand side outer tyre was rubbing the outer edge of the guard and the left side was scrubbin the innards. also u'll have 2 either cut or replace ur bumpstops coz they will be resting on ur diff otherwise. i just cut mine down to suit.
