Depending on how your rear shocks are configured, you might be able to convert U13 bluebird rear disks to your diff.
I ran them on the rear of my 1200 for a while, but the shocks got in the way. And it made it nearly impossible to lower it.

Even tho Annie isn't quite on the road yet, looks like I'm getting another project!
It's too complete, honest, original and cheap to pass up on...

81' 210 sportstar ute! :drool: $1600 reg on hold, rust in sills with one new sill supplied!

Pics to follow when I get her :highfive:

Nice one Bert!

That I have my friend!
And I'm hopefully getting the ute next week. The owners putting it back together for me (Not that it wont get pulled apart again lol.) It will be good to see if the motor goes as he said, and if there is anything missing which I doubt....
It's even got the factory tauna cover!

Deals done on the ute, she's mine!! :dance2:
Picking her up on tuesday.. I'll start a thread then.


So.... Now I'm in a pickle, get my ass into gear and get Annie's head/inlet/exhaust finished?
Or get another sill made up (And a few extras for the needy) get them welded in and get the ute legal?
Decisions... decisions... decisions...

Either way, I'm gonna have one in a storage shed away from my home..

My advise is get Annie legal, then you got transport While you do the ute properly. Plus you'll be able to park your scooter up, and enjoy some gasoline power for a change! :burnout:

Update:

SHE'S ALIVE!!! :dance: Annie is breathing again! Man I'm stoked!!

Still needs a decent tune, but, she's running alright. Loving the sound of the cam! :drool:
Took her for a wof this morning, failed on horn (Why didn't I check that??) LF inner rack end play and RR seatbelt worn...

So, all in all not to bad

So, she's all legal, new struts in the rear so she doesn't drag her ass as soon as I have more then 2 people riding along lol :burnout:
Now I've been offered some mags at a good price just needing 2 new tyres...

What do you guys think of 18x7s? They came of my mates U13 bluebird.
Of course she need's more low, but I have to wait till chamberlains reopen on the 7th :deadhorse:

Didn't have the right wheel nuts, so I didn't want to roll her around to settle the suspension.
I'm keen but one of my mates is paying me out hard over just thinking of getting them lol

Let me know what you think guys!!
