VU SS Fifty

Gunna be like new though. The suspension stuff is something I want to do as well, like the bushes, links, tie rods etc. Done shocks and springs.

 

[Aussie XB12SS]

Yep, almost like a new one now. Doing the control arm & sway bar bushes in the arse end made me realise the front could do with a touch up as well.
I think almost every bush from front to back has been done now.

Me mates at Bob Jane like putting the shiny **** on the tyres which is all over the guards by the time I get home.
But they fixed things for free for me after the local mob frigged t up.

 

[Gaiter]

Yes they do, and I have my ass hanging out for 20-30m down the road every time I leave their dealership at like 20km/h cause of the slippery stuff

Ute's looking tough. The slimy **** is very annoying. When i got my old
clubby from a toyota dealership the detailers wiped off a Mark Skaife
signature from the dash. That was annoying.

Probably some young foreign fella just thought one of us bogan aussies
wanted to write our name on the cars dash, just incase we forgot whos car it was.lol

Well got sick of the whine in the diff. Disappointed with diff after the work I had doen by the local mechanic so down to MDR in Dandenong for a new diff. Rang them and said I just want another stock unit on Tuesday and went down on Friday, old one out, new one in and back on the road by 11:00am.
Couldn't be happier.
Then ducked around to Dandy exhausts for a couple of high flow cats.

Hey Aussie,

Well my bad luck continues. A block failed to giveaway and nudged me the other week.
Destroying another badge.
The insurance company are trying to screw me by saying they will reimburse me the last know RRP for the badge
Can I ask a favour? Would you be able to send me a photo of the packaging so i can see who made them in South Korea ? ( i saved your pic from before but can't see quite enough )
Or if you know a company that can do mint replications as I have to get quotes for insurance company.
Lesson- don't sell those badges to anyone mate lol.

Cheers,
Clayton

Some of them SS Fifty got the better heads and performed better then the normal old 5.7L
I know of 2 people who got that engine in them.
One car sales man had one in the yard about 3 years old and pointed out to me that that thing goes a lot harder than any other stock VU SS , but I did not know at the time that some got that better engine. the heads have the number of what they are on them near the front exhaust.
