Probably only a little bit more I guess but it would be roosting in off the tyres

My old body mounts allowed the body to hit the frame and steering box on hard hits, and that's with standard shock towers, I was going to cut out the entire hump to install extended shock mounts

Yeah the shock tower is hard against the body now. Had to manipulate the drivers side a little but all in now.

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

Biggest issue for me was how I was going to get to the top nut on the shock but the hole sorts that out.

Hey Mudrunner just had a quick question about when you moved the primer pump back over to the drivers side (roughly page 110 I think) . Did you take the wring for the water in fuel plug with it or not worry about it? If so, how did you do that. Just about to do the same on mine and after any tips. Cheers.

Hi mate, sorry I completely missed your post. Sorry for not following you up.
I have run an after market fuel filter for 10 years with a water separator so the wiring is obsolete on mine. Would not be difficult though I would think. Knowing Nissan it probably leaves the loom on the drivers side and goes across the fire wall anyway.
Hope you got it sorted mate/ feel free to ask away.

Nah all good mate. Yeah pretty sure it is in the loom on the drivers side and just goes across the inside of the firewall and then out the other. Haven't got around to it yet as have had bigger dramas. Cheers though.
