Might have found a friend on the west coast willing to supply me brakes 😀😀😀

The ole ute is gettin dusty these days.

Progress made.

Seat belts installed.
Rear loom repaired, there was some crusty wiring to repair. Retaped the loom and installed.
License plate lights installed.
Front and side indicators bulb changed cleaned amd installed.
Shock absorbers. Excel G replacements from oz installed.
Need some m12 split washers.
Go fast rocker cover bolts installed

that's all i can remember at the moment.

The shock upper mounts were covered in Raptor liner so i had to buy an m12 1.25 die ans rethread them. Clearance was a pain but my trusty big ass adjustable wrench did the slow job okay.

I have the same exact struts on would like to know what they came off of as well. It seems that nobody has an exact answer. A Google search does not lead to anything conclusive

New calipers arrived in the mail

Did I order the wrong ones?

Bolt spacing is 8 millimeters too short and it does not Center itself on the rotor

Since i sacrificed my race seats to the Avacodo i bought a pair of excellent black B110 Coupe seats. They are not ute seats so not as roomy but they will do until i can import some ute seats.

I installed new seat belts. They are military surplus Humvee. Test fit the seats and the new seat belts are a little short. Seat belt extenders will fix this.

Months ago i had a shop pack the front bearings and install my king springs.

Also had the rotors machined.

Installed the radius rod and bushings today. That was the last piece of steering to be completed.

Ages ago i bought a pair of RCAs from techno toy tuning.

I had a very difficult time installing the strut and i see no way i can fit an RCA in there. So i dont think i will use them.

I am using King spring superlow as the springs.

Also realized i cannot get a brake caliper with the strut installed. So i have to undo half the work i did today.
