Hey Rob, welcome back! I was wondering where you go to!
She's coming along real well! Gunna be an awesome ute once you're done. I'm keen to know how the four link ends up going. Where did you get your kit from?
Keep it up!

HI RSR100 love the build i know that u have 17s on the beast but what width rim u running and what size tyre u got under there,i am tubbing mine to the rails,movingthe leaf springs also cutting the lip of the gaurds and pumping them.I like the ride height and also how u have tucked the tyres under the gaurds which is the only thing i have asked of dave the guy that is doing the diff conversion for me.I am putting convo pros on mine to start of with then will probably go 17frs as tempe tyres have the moulds.
