See not too bad really (not that great for an unforseen circumstance though)

My friend got a quote for £55 (not sure if it was +vat or not) for a SJ screen

Perspex rear and side windows, HMMMMM

im not to fussed. it had stone chips anyway.

gunna wait till i need it to see if a used one comes up local anyway

Need advice/opinions for my bumper

got lights covered (some nice led jobs on the way)

I think it needs to be higher but this was just by bolting the plates on and resting it on there.










do you think just bending the orange bits up untill its high enough will work

I plan to make up some bits like the green stuff to weld onto the orange bit to support it



do you think this will be strong enough as it will also serve as recovery points as well.

(2x 10mm bolts holding the orange plates on each side)


All opinions good and bad welcome

put the tail gate in place to get a better feel for how it looks.

Drill the bottom mounting holes out to 12mm and use grade 8 or higher bolts and also tie the bumper into the rear body mounts so that you have 2extra mounting points, you might need to get rid of the top rubbers though.

I'll take a pic and show you what I mean.

Looking nice so far. I've got to say I really fancy a set of wheels like yours. I recognise them but cant think what they are off!!!!!! Help and put me out of my misery, what they called and where can i get a set?
Cheers

Ive been asked before. They were on the truck when I got it.

No idea what they are so bonus points if you find out!

The center caps say american racing on them

Dan

Oh no!!! Well hopefully someone else might know. Keep up the good posts. Cheers

For refrence here is a decent shot of one of my wheels. (Excuse the state of the discs )




And after searching high and low this is the best I can find online.



As seen here

Of course they might not be made by american racing at all and someone could have just used those centers

Not a huge ammount to report

Have come back off nights and onto days and ended up with a horrible cold so trying to avoid going outside to much.

My new sealed LED tail lights arrived so I started having a look at the bumper.

In true southern electric style its the top of a lamp post (75mm tube) and I've trimmed the ends at a nice angle to give it some style


The lights






Making up some boxes to recess into the tube






I'm now stuck trying to decide whether to stick with just the 2 tail lights, or get a LED fog lamp and reverse light (same size as the tail lights) and add them in aswell.

Thing is they are £20 a pop so with delivery its another £50 to add the extras

I'm going to put a decent reverse light on the back of the truck anyway so might just get the fog light in LED.

I don't wanna compromise the strength of the tube by cutting to many recesses into it either

What do you think??










Dan

well i wouldnt say that looks like a street light tube anymore ,

hope you dont mind me asking but were did you get them lights from they looks pretty
