suicide boot conversion on vs.

[CANYONERO]

so where do you buy the kits or who do you take the car to to get these mods done?

lol Stealthy, i have never known any1 to do a suicide boot like McBeth's Magna, thats y wen evry1 says suicide boot, i think flip boot... as long as we all know what we talking bout i spose
DVSV8, i didn't make my kit, my mate made it and put it all together, but if u follow the link in my post above, it lists what you need to get it done. most of it is just offcuts of steel u mite have lying around the house. it is more of DIY job, as only specialty car places could prob do it, or would bother... its not overly hard, the worst part is prob assembling it all before u put it on the car.
again, i can provide extra photos over the weekend if requested. mine isn't painted like Harvma20's and it is slightly easier to see what is what imo.
PM me with any other queries guys, or post em up and i'l try and help... just gotta add a subscription to this thread now lol

hey dude when i did mine i used 50mm snap pins from supercheap in order to lock the lid to the boot arms, they are fairly strong and can not come out, i also put some arms/hinges on to hold the boot on the horizontal. Mines a lil messy and needs painting but you get the idea

That is an excellent setup mate, the "R" clips are a quick and easy fix (you could also use clevis pins) and i like the idea of the levelling straps. A bit of a tidy up and a paint and it will look smicko!

Well done...............Pete! :bow:
