Re: Steve's 08 D4-D
looks tops steve, what happened to going slow :lol: , i would be very careful about going to much higher in the front end, you will put to much angle on ya CVs and lso to the ball joints can start to bind when at extremes, from what i have heard you need to have about 50 mm or more down travel on ya struts or you will start to top out ya shock if ya hit a decent bump or roundabouts, how much height r you after, i got 805mm in the front and 830 in the back, but it has settled in the fron to 790mm and in the back its about 830 still. cheers samohad an 03 gx 120 with some gear now got a 2013 bt 50 GT auto some ARB gear.Comment

Re: Steve's 08 D4-D
thanks for your comments guys.
going slow, well, i thought i was going to go slow, but the mrs keeps encouraging me. i will eventually run out of stuff to get. i'll try to at least not get overboard.
i got 800 in the front, and still have a bout 60mm or so down travel. rear is at 865mm with the OME 896 coils.
i might just leave it as it is. might go 285's when the 265's are gone.SIK-120

Yes how much was it Steve, would be nice to get that to kill two birds with one stone, a proper wheel spacer and a light bracket to boot!Originally posted by joey[B]My 2007 D4D [COLOR=darkred]Flinders Red[/COLOR] Buildup[/B] - [URL="http://www.pradopoint.com/showthread.php?13590-Golly-s-Flinders-Red-D4D-GXL"] HERE[/URL] :cool:

Re: Steve's 08 D4-D
looking at getting a UHF radio fitted up.
the new GME TX3100 seems pretty good, with the new DSP and its super small size. i like the super small hand piece as well. the TX3440 seems a bit much. i just want something simple and easy to use. would have been good if the TX3100 kept the green backlit display.

might also go for a small AE4703 aerial in Grey. not keen on the white ones.
and got a price ont he new BFG KMII muddies. 285/70/17 are $497 ea up here. nice tyres, but still yet to prove their worth to me. haven't had much experience with them as they are still so new. time will tell, plus, i'm yet to run the Mickey's out. 25000 KMs later, and they're still happy as larry with a whole heap of tread left. so far, very happy with the tread wear.SIK-120

Re: Steve's 08 D4-D
Babs replied:yeah, the lights are spreads on the outside, and the centre one is a spot beam. i wasn't overly impressed with the spot beam, and running two spreads was a lot better suited to where i drive. only reason i put the spot i the centre was to get a bit more distance for those road markers.
Any chance of a good picture of those three lights blazing down the road........I wouldnt mind seeing the 2 x spreads & 1 x Spot HID's in actionBabs

Are you happy with it and where did you go for on the install?
I had under the ashtray picked out and maybe with a small mod it may even squeeze in veritcally??
