Lift done

[POPEYE]

Finished apart from some longer rear shocks, the olduns are topped out, have to put some weight in there for now, tyres stick out a bit, and i had to set about the inner wing with a grinder and larrup several shades of $hit out the seam to get the clearance needed, i'll make up a bit of rubber to cover those gapeing holes later, i'm happy with it, what'd ya reccon? i had to remove the front and rear roof lights to get it out the garage however if i knock up the slabes i covered the deck with that'll give me an extra 2"ish more clearance then the front roof ones can go back on, i fitted the rear ones lower down on the window edgeing, these act as reversing lights, missis aint tryed it out yet so i'm expecting grief, need another air opp step, ready for mot now
i did'nt measure it before i started but i reccon the l/c springs have taken it up over 2" certainly looks more anyway



And NO it's not for sale by parkinsons

[POPEYE]

Cheer's mateys i'm intending getting to the srtts in the new year so it'll probably see some mud on it, next mod is (apart from a possible second step)
is a diy winch bumper if i can find some s/s, same lift Roy although i did the 2" body lift some time ago if thats wot you mean, i'm sure it's now got about 5" of lift on the back, with the 2" body lift and 31"'s on i used to have about 3"
clearance on top of the rear lights to the cieling, those lights go about 5" from top to mounting, i've now got 2" clearance from the spoiler to the cieling

Most excellent!
Is that a timber flat roof on the garage? If so why not add another course or two of blocks to raise the height.

Tech week-end in the summer?


p.s. Damn you for showing those wheels again!!

[POPEYE]

Could'nt get it out any further as the tw@t accross the road parked his banger racer low loader in the way and buggered off out, just as well it's off the road, those scroats next door Rod have gone, repossed, the place is empty and as far as i know it's up for auction, she was ok he was a real waste of white,

i did think about raiseing the roof (could lock woodzie in there for a few days) but as it's basicly one roof covering the two garages it may be a pain to do, cheers tho, once i bash up the slabs on the floor i'll have an extra 2" to play with

[Antshiel]

Oooooooooooooh i've just gone all damp!!
