    V8 county ute

    Thanks for the prompt Clive, I just remembered I still have the anti roll bar attached, that and the super stiff springs aren’t going to do much flexing.
    I ran the same Bilstien shocks in my rangie and that would never seem to be stopped by lack of articulation.
    Sure I couldn’t crawl through the super wombat holes that a forced articulation 3 link front could ,but those bits of track are so hard to come by it never worried me
    Maybe the longer wheelbase needs a bit more rear travel.
    I’ll start with ditching the arb, sort some springs retained as you say, some smooth bodied remote shocks maybeV8 county ute
    Wouldn’t mind taking the lift out of it.
    Maybe even a bit lower
    Doesn’t hold up this guy

    It’s really stable

    Some domestic duties today, standing on the roof of the ute to trim the hedges works really well.
    Then working on a simpler heater than the county issue.
    Blank off the return duct
    Install new nutsert
    Make nutsert tool out of a blade from an old shovel

    The heater matrix pipes are fouling the ecu loom.
    I may have to swap it to the other side
    Although the locker pipes are running through the drivers side
    Reinvent the fn wheel again
