They've been on for a while. I'll see how they go.

Not any more!!!!



The progress this morning

Original Rotoflex - 21 years old, 4” lift and 33’s


Back doors gone…


Hmmm. Something not quite right with that ACE linkage


Time for a clean up, degrease and then into the Workshop for phase 2

I've gone through a couple too, mine have all failed like that and in the rear - never the front. I'm not sure if you can still buy new OE ones any more.

You should do a build thread on this.

Already worked out a solution to it.

Bespoke units coming



I may do a thread, but when I’m in the build mode I often forget to stop and take pics.

Still available Simon, sub $100 ea. Just replaced mine.

Got my new shoes today and did a full transmission service, filter n all. Anyone done before? I was finding it hard to get 4th gear sometimes and slow to take up drive / reverse. Fluid level seemed ok.

Decided to pull the pan and pull the filter out. The new filter comes with O rings that go around the pickup tube and top inlet feed into the tranny but the one I took out has no O rings? seems odd. I would have thought without them you would get air getting sucked in from higher up that’s not submersed in the oil. Maybe someone in in the past did a **** poor job.



New shoes , 16x8 30 offset dynamics's on some muds. 285/75/16, had to trim some of the side step and the inner part of the lower door sill plastic that runs down the car. I feel like driving over every thing now. happy days. Also will have to mod the rear wheel holder to fit.
