i have a 1200 ute and replaced the front springs with bluebird rear coilover springs. i had to cut 2 coils off. this sat level and solid as a rock. with about 2 inches gap between
the wheel and the arch with 185/65/13s and the springs rattle if you lift the front end off the ground. as well the sway bar off a 120y bolts straight up with no effort. the 16mm std
is then replaced with a 20mm one. no body role at all, and mine carries extra weight with gas fitted so yours might sit higher, hope this helps, bye buzzard

over 18 months ive had 2 x 1200s 1x1400 3 radiators, all had tanks removed and cleaned, new thermostats, cap, all different distributor settings, my 1200 ute is on gas and has an
acumiltive heat problem from 110kmh onwards, slowly gets hotter untill it overheats, slow down a little and the temp comes down. with large jetting on petrol it still over heats, any
suggestions on a cheap alternative radiator avail from a wrecker??? $300 quoted for a 3 core h/d one tooo dear, no budget, just need to get to work and back, even on a hot day 80kmh is
out of the question??? thanks buzzard, the blown 1530cc sounds interesting??

dattodude i forgot to mention that the hotwire spacers allow the front tyres to stick out of the guard 1 inch, and the rears level
with the guard.
i think theyre off of a sigma???? bye shane...

can anyone tell me how to alter my speedo, i have had a 4 speed and a 5 speed in my 1200 ute, with the same result.
i run 205/65-13 and the speedo shows 123kmh
@ 110kmh, with 195/65-14 the speedo is correct. with 12s on the speedos out heaps, about 150kmh @ 110kmh??? the drive in the box doesnt seem to be changeable?? the ute is 10/
1980 with 3 round guage dash type. thanks shane,,

i have 13x5.5 all round with 185/65 front, they scrape on corners, 205/60 rear and they fill out the guard nicely, i also run 195/65-14 sometimes but in 5th gear its
a bit tall
