that sounds familiar - just wait and see how much time you have when you have some kids running round too.

I'm supposed to fit al that stuff in the back

and then drive it home from Sydney to Melbourne.

Saw this on Saturday when I picked up my baby from AMV.

Made my thing look like it needed a lift! Very cool setup - tho it looked loop-sided??

you should try climbing into the thing. I'm 6' 1 and used to climbing into lifted 4bys but damm this thing is tall.

**RaZz0R** · 20th December 2010, 02:39 PM

LOL! Yeah myself & my partner both thought about that aspect!

She used to have a pootrol with a 6" lift. But standing next to it gives you a good idea lol

I am about to go down the track of fitting 35's or 34's with a nice cut job to fit them - I do of course have the 4.6lt which will help lol. I noticed Greg had a Range Spares super charger there.. .got me thinking - direct bolt on with no internal mods required!

Yeah the 4.6ltr with a forced induction will carry out all the required mods to your drive train.....

I must say if often daydream about FI on my 4.6ltr. I reckon it would make a great engine freaking awesome one....

**RaZz0R** · 21st December 2010, 11:08 AM

yeah I thought about that one as well - altho I do have maxi axles all round the and drive line is not stock rangie either... D2 I believe. Still.. nice to dream right?

Hey!!! You bought that Silver Rangie from a guy named Steve Bull? in Sydney? I bought his other Rangie, 93 RRC. Drove it from Sydney to Rocky. Bastard did not tell me about the slipped liner though

He gave me all the receipts including the ones for the Silver Rangie for some reason. He did a rebuild on your motor quite some time a go. Wow he threw some money at those cars. Let me know your details and i can send the Silver Rangie receipts to you

cheers!!
