Re: Treadwrights

Because of the size and weight of them by the time you add freight for i assume 5 tyres you will be spending alot of coin for "cheap tyres", get some local and better quality, good deals come up on trademe every now and then

Re: Nissan Terrano SAS feedback

You started this project off with a cool idea a Terrano with safari gear under it on maybe 35s and we all tuned in imagining the potential beast coming out of the south, but all you have done so far is step 1 of the many required to achieve this. It doesnt matter what your income is just keep chippi...

Re: New WOF rules announced

My personal thought is that if you cant look at your tyres ect you properly shouldn't be driving in the first place, it wont hurt people to have to take a bit of responsibility for their and others safety. Just my 2 cents But thats the problem people just wont do that unless they constanatly have s...

Re: Ball Joint Spacers

No. A 1" spacer cannot give a 2" lift without touching the torsions. :? How the f**k can it unless you have your torsions loaded against the bumpstops before you start???? All you are doing is spacing the hub assy down 1", so 1" lift. Simple. :roll: But try it, and post your res...

Re: Surf ball joint spacers/torsion bar advice please

the diff lowering blocks (and sway bar blocks) are not 100% necessary with only a 2" lift. however they are handy at keeping CV angles at stock angle. I would def use the diff lowering blocks even if just using bj spacers to level out the front as when at full droop the spacers allow the lower...
