So first up are get exhaust welded back up then take it in for wof.

Had a yarn to the Archers Springs crowd so will get the leafs sent up there to get reset. Once Wof'd will then pull the front stuts out and measure up a few things and then hunt out some suitable body adjustable coilovers to suit. And then get a adaptor boss made up and welded to cut down struts.

Cheers mate.

Had to stick the factory wheels back on as the tyres on my equips are pretty suspect....looks filthy lowered on steels haha.

Have a spare set of struts which ill shorten and whack the coilover kits on, and get the leves reset in the back.

stripped down spare struts. Just need to get some new cutting discs to whip spring perches off. Looking into shorter shocks, then will cut and shut the struts.

waiting to get shocks first, but looks like it will be 80mm. 1981 pulsar inserts are the same diameter as the 120y inserts but 81mm shorter and only 10mm less travel so wok a treat. just trying to get a decent price on a pair! haha
