Dav30's old girl

[DAV30]

hey guys
thought instead of just lurking around i would introduce my self and my old girl.
bought her last year of a mate that had it sitting in a paddock for 8 months gathering dust,
shes a td42 leaf rear CC picked her up for 4k plus my old Hyundai excel. since getting her i have been doing allot of preventive maintenance. here is a lost of everything i have done to her to get her running right because when i got her she was terrible, worst parts were a leaking fuel pump and blown hub seals.

So since getting it last September iv replaced all these parts.

Front swivel hub rebuild front and rear brakes new rear wheel cylinders and front rotors brand new efs shocks all round and a efs steering dampener new alternator starter and battery recon fuel pump injectors and glow plugs. Added an oil catch can to engine new throttle cable new accelerator pedal new brake and clutch pedal rubbers new flares on the front new drivers weather shield new head unit new gear knob new snorkel hella driving lights front bonnet protector dash mat and that's all I can remember right now

most recent purchase was 4 new maxxis AT980 33'' tires
here are some pics i know the body is in bad shape but i plan on respraying it one day

this is when i first picked her up

WOW bargain but can you put your intro in the intro section and leave this as a members ride ,so we can watch any mods and changes,
One of the mods will be able to help you, no harm done though,
Welcome to the forum heaps of tips and info,

Bit of work on the sills required but has to be bargain of the Year

[DAV30]

sorry hopefully a mod can move this for me
yea iv been quoted 2500 to fix and spray everything including the bullbar but im not sure about the bar i might get a steel one
next thing on the mod list is a 2 inch lift allready got the shocks

[threedogs]

You can mod your bar to suit a low mount winch being a 4.2
not 100% the winch cradle will bolt up under the chassis.
There are 2 captive nuts each side up the front, plenty written on the subject.

[liftlid]

Is that the bash plate under the radiator?
How wide is it? It's hard to tell the size

[DAV30]

not wide at all id say 350 long 220 wide just by looking at it

[liftlid]

Did it come with the car or bulbar?

[DAV30]

it came with the bull bar and it was second hand so im not sure

[liftlid]

It's not a plate to fill the hole where a winch would go?

[DAV30]

ahh i duno ill have to check it out when i get home tonight
