    Well boys and girls, as promised here are the piccies. One very happy man. Played around with some flex on a couple of tyres at the old mans but nothing serious. All I need now is some bigger shoes and it will be one big boss! Cost me just over 2k for springs, shocks, brake lines, castor correctors and some heavy duty rear arms. Thinking about getting a drop box in to line up the tail shaft a bit better and to take out the very slight vibration I get. Steering wheel is now turned to the right a fair bit say 2oclock to keep her in a straight line so not sure if the steering arm needs adjusting or if she is crabbing. It has always done it but just worse now with the lift, pretty sure I knocked the steering arm a while ago because when I bought the rig it was riding pretty true. Any how, saving for tyres now and work has the designs for the front bar. Will also pick up a new steering damper soon.

    Hope you enjoy this as much as I am doing
    Cheers
    Brett
