hey mate welcome to the forum, that utes clean as mate, keep it that way haha. she'll look tough on those VE's
are you kidding me? your the 3rd bloke in the last few days to post a ride thread with a vs ute.
there are so bloody many of them on here, i love it.
anyway mate, heaps clean ute, the colour is real nice.
should get the ssv rims in a gloss black, would look tough as.
Hey thanks fellas..
I put some new springs in her today, lowered it a fair bit ill get some pics up ASAP..
Hopefully getting me rims this week. In a Gloss black? Might get em see how they look in silver, then do a bit of photoshoppin nd see wat they come up with in Black!! Thanks for the Ideas Tim
keep em comin
What springs did you put in mate? Did you change your shocks too or leave them stock?
SSV rims will look tough in silver mate, can't wait to see them.
Note: That is only carpet in the back, so it isnt anythinything heavy!
Im not actuelly sure what they are, Pedders dnt put them under classes like King Springs! I can get the serial number if ya like?. If memory serves me right they r very close to Ultra lows..
Na mate changed the shockys! Sports Rider short travel ones. Standered shocks had to much Travel and was allowing the spring to Pop out, even with these shocks in the spring becomes loose :/..
I cant wait either![]()
Yea Plan 2 as soon as me Rims go on !. Next thing after that is a Hardtop.. There so expensive though! Been keepin me eye out on ebay, buy it second hand and have it repainted i think is the way ta go!
Pedders. As i said above im not sure wat they are exactly :/

Hey mate,
That looks so good with the 19"s on it! I have a VS ute as well and I have a choice of getting some 18" VYss wheels or the same 19"s as you, and i really want the 19"s. I cant find any straight answers on how to do it. So I was wondering if you could help me out with how you went about it, like with machining the hubs, getting the right nuts to fit and getting lock nuts, rolling the guards (if needed), and if you had any trouble with the studs. Also if you have any speedo problems or insurance problems?
The more detail the better!! Haha thanks heaps!
Love the ute!!
