    Hey mate good choice of vehicle..!! Those wheels look pretty good too. Those springs can't be "Super Lows" surely??? It looks like it has "Lows" in the rear and the front looks standard.

    front looks pretty standard but the rear could jsut be sitting on the bumpstops. superlows will sit on the stops. Car looks great nice to see a different colourd one once in a while not like us white ute boys

    yeh im not to sure about the springs ay.. the guy i bought it off sed he put superlows in and i was thinking that it looked higher. pretty sure he ment lows but i definately want the back lower and the front a little bit too.. my only problem is that my gas tank is underneath and the bolts that hold it in scrape if i have too much weight in the rear! today i had 500kg of dollarmite in the rear and it sat with the guards a little ova the tyres... just how i want it to look. but the ride was terrible lol had 2 drive like my grandpa.. im not sure if im going 2 b able to lower it much more without the tank scraping..

    Lookin good tail gate is much cleaner now. Looks good with the dirt in the rear. I once tried to load mine up with a pallet about a meter high of particle board for work. Fully bottomed out. I didnt take the load was far to heavy. Looked tough as though

    U jack the rear of the ute up, u will see the bumpstops sitting above the diff, they'll have 3 bolts in each one, easier to take em off n cut them than try to whilst on the car.

    looks way cleaner mate, yer i done my bumpstops a couple of days ago, just jack the car up and unbolt them, should be a 13mm bolt x3. take em off and cut them down, i was advised by kingsprings to cut them to 60mm in length to suit sl springs i would advise you to spray some wd40 on the bolts or your gonna have a hard time getn them off.


    lookn good mate, keep us updated
