Post by subbie »

Just interested in finding out how many of you are using new ring and pinion gear ratios when running larger tyres, and where the best place to get them from in NZ.

yeah, i managed to sell it for $1000 minus the shocks $300 towbar $150 rear bumper $50.
all have left is the set of seats from a crx which i had in it, and the wheels. so i didn't lose too much.
