    Well grimace they said to write it as a reminder on the order and said Greg was hoping like all get up to get some ready to be ready in approx 1 week. Will do a install pics etc once I go over and collect them. in the meantime I have just finish paint the custom tray and Exo Cage and peeping body for paint Tuesday Afternoon. So hope fully next weekend I will be bolting new seats, fitting Ashcroft Gear, fitting front Superflex Arms (rears also if ready), Fitting CB, Stereo, APT Front Double CD Porp Shaft. And attempting to film it.... Crazy I know. Week after am getting engineer plates on the seat changes etc and rego. Then Shakedown run. Then final work then Trip to North QLD to test it all out....

    I think you will find that these arms are the bolt in replacements for the standard arms

    Wayne.

    What length Shock did you end up fitting and did you keep the pin pin setup. Will take the tape measure to the truck once the arms are on and may need to replace the front spring even though new as the dual battery (YellowTops D31A) have dropped the front left down more than we thought.

    My main reason was to make the front to rear balanced also but the Shock that the Boys at Superior have in Pin to Pin ma not be big enough so may have to make new shock mounts that are Eye to Eye (Trying to avoid this).

    Nick I have the longest pin/pin that they make Although it depends on how you want to play around,you may be better off with the ones they make for the lifted Patrols,like Mike (gold cloverleaf) has fitted
    Also by playing with rear mounts you could fit ridiculous length shocks to the rear,but I am more concerned about a balanced package offroad and not a picture pose truck so have limited the length of the rear shocks to achieve my aim.And am as happy as a pig in ****

    Thanks Wayne.

    I am after a balanced rig also.

    I will wait till the arms are on and check the travel. I love how balanced yours has become with SF fronts mate.

    Rear Arms hoping tomorrow or Friday.... Waiting on the powdercoaters for the brackets.

    I have been trying to make brackets for the aftermarkets seats that the Engineer is happy with and still gives ok access to battery boxes then road worthy and Hopefully shakedown to be able to see if she is as balanced as Wayne's beast before posting pics (gotta say Wayne your truck really is balanced front to rear now).

    Yeah thanks Nick,a balanced setup is what I have been chasing,as I believe that it will get you a lot further and safely than something that has a lot of travel but is unbalanced.
    Which rear arms did you end up with.The bolt in ones or the long arms that will require mounting brackets to be welded to the chassis?

    Wayne I haven't got them in my hot hands yet...

    But the boys at Superior have said they are like the Heavy Duty Adjustable Nissan arms (+30mm) type. As you said Greg hasn't had time to make and test a set of weld on Long Arms yet.

    I was and may still make some long arms but I needed a set or rear arms for the trip next week and have a list as long as my arm to get done on the truck and am avoiding more welding and painting...
