soon more will go on and more mods to come.
starting with a 2 inch shackle lift , then a spoa lift.
Ive been offered some 33 12.50 15's on rims for around ?500
so i may be going large too.
i killed some blades cutting the alloy chequer plate yesterday so thats not yet done, off to try again today.
if not i have the option of using a plasma cutter.
i spoke to a zuke guy with a workshop yesterday and asked him about making up a rollcage for me.
he said if i draw it he can make it.
he recommended alloy
it's the best way to go, he said.
some kind of alloy that's used to make planes.
apparently it's stronger than steel and far far lighter.
he has several pipe bending tools in the workshop and has made many roll bars and cages before.
i told him that i want an exterior cage that bolts to the chassis.
he said its up to you.
materials are around ?90
so thats a future project to look forward too.
meanwhile I'm off to go look at a zuke that's for sale
it's ?200 again but this one has a vitara 1.6 fitted .
and it's an '86' model
i will update on it's condition :-\\\\
