My 70series cruiser

[cruzerboy]

did a bit more after work today

Cool build , Whatd you use for the rear lower links? How is it too drive with the four link?

[cruzerboy]

cheers 40mm steamtube with 80series ends. Drives alrite better than it did with leafs when i get round to making up some swaybars should be better.

[Bulletproof]

sum bracing for the panhard bar

Looking good.

I would suggest you put a rotating end on the panhard rod. It relieves a lot of the tension.

I had an engineering firm turn up an end the same as the body ends of the radius rods out of 8.8 steel and we tigged it on. I then used the same rubbers as the radius rods.

Works miles better than the standard bushes.

Cheers Richard

[cruzerboy]

just about got the chop finished

[callum007]

looking good.. when you say you've up'd the boost. did you just block of the line to the wastegate so you'd have about 15psi or something else. mine ran about 17psi with wastegate feed on a solenoid.
found it ran better too when i slapped an intercooler on which was really easy.

[cruzerboy]

ive got a boost controller on it set at 15psi intercoolers on the list of things to do.

Gidday ive been doing the same sort of conversion on my 70.
Just wondering what length shocks you've fitted. I'm impressed with the amount of flex you've got.
Cheers Darren

[cruzerboy]

there just 50mm lifted landcruiser shocks can get more flex but the spring come uncaptive so ive got limiting straps in it

[cruzerboy]

got the ute chop finished and have moved on to the exo









also having problems with smashing hubs all the time so going to look at doing something about that. going to get some new boots for it to the wanglers arnt cutting it any more

proberly another set of 37s somrthing more agresive tho

[cruzerboy]

Decided to drag the 70 out from under the tree its been parked under for the last year. I painted it a while back and started redoing the barwork now its time to finish it and do some wheeling again. Plan is to finish the exo fix all the leaks put a new winch in it mount the old one in the back make a new snorkel and tidy up the inside bound to find other things to do aswell. Started today by hosing all the wildlife out of the cab and made a start on filling in the back of the cab
