Ok bought the vehicle for 500 bucks or should i say exchanged it for labour of that value. Was told motor blown so left it and started doing dual cab conversion. Today i decided to have a look at engine , fitted another starter motor out of project pat changed oil and filled with water and she runs like a dream so absolutely stoked.

thanks ay just wondering how long did u go with ur tray i was gonna go 1300 including head board as i have toolboxes that are 1210 that i want to stick on back.

 

[simsy]

looking good mate

 

[patrol_maverick]

how long did u go with ur tray.

About 1100 with headboard. It only overhangs the chassis about 100mm at the rear.

my tray is exactly 4' as my tool box is 4' long, i think you can legally go to about 5' but you should check an engineer because there is a certain amount over hang on the chassis your aloud.
