let me know what your after specifically i have heaps of spare and may be willing to part with. i am an hour from sydney.. call weekdays, txt any time, 0417495995

Hi all, just wondering what you are all doing or have done with the spare whee on your 1200 utes?
I am looking for an idea on where to put it as i am cleaning the underneath and taking out the spare wheel section and also fitting out the tray so might have a spot in there.

Would love to see some picks of some neat setups if anyone has done anything with their spare...

Anyone used the aeroflow fuel pumps? just wondering if they stack up to the bosch 044..

cheers. appreciate the help.

nothing too crazy. im running a standard ca18 with a 6boost mainfold and gt3675 turbo upgrade, just for a bit more fun! wont really be racing the car or anything like that.
