Was in the shed today with the wheels off the GU and the spare out of the GQ sitting there after the weekend wash down.
Thought you'd find this funny.
The GUIV runs a 305/70R16 and the GQ a 37 Trep.......

Thread Dig!!! LOL.
Been a while.
Last time the big girl was out was thr West Coast of Tassie where it performed exactly how I designed it to work. Bloody love this car.
Every piece of bar work was lent on and scraped. Last weekend I rubbed it all back and gave it another coat of Satin Black with a brush ans it came up like new. Fresh.
Soooooo. $1000 Tk took a swipe at me. Dented the front passenger Door so decided a replacement was the easiest way to fix it. Sourced another door off FB Marketplace for $100 and stripped it down of all mechanisms etc and patched a couple od small dents and got it ready for paint.

Found all the paint left over from the last spray and sourced some more.

Had a couple of dings in the paint around the place and also after getting rained on on paint day pre paint my re-prep ready for paint missed the welds on the roof sliders and I have had a little surface rust bleed there which has pissed me off.

Also top rear corner of drivers D Piller had some rust that I treated last time and had reappeared slightly so went the hack and sorted that as best I can. Shit of a spot to get into but hope i got most of it.

Taped up the roof sliders and washed and kill rusted them and gave them a paint while I had a batch mixed.

Watch out for the door adjustment so it doesn´t pinch the fender at the bottom.
Yeah they are a bit of a bugger for that. Adjustment is a bit of a bugger too damn it, it seems to adjust I have to adjust the fixing to the Body, not the door. These are behind the quarter panel damn it, I didn't want to have to take that off. The flare is bolted to the Quarter And the Barwork, taking that quarter off would be a mission. It's out slightly but I think I can work with it.Quote:

A month ago I stripped off the radius arms and replaced all the bushes and will give the tyres a rotation then its time to get muddy again.
