Just a quick question, how are you going to get the flares passed as roadworthy? are the a little more lenient in VIC?

So it started today probly the greatest thing ever had truble finding the right bolts to plug holes but its all sorted now. i had to buy a
Batery but after that it started pretty easy no nocks or rattles witch was good. so tomorrow arvo i might try taking the gearbox out.

Well I ordered a shifter extension and it arrived so tried it out and even with the razo short shifter it dosnt seem very short its perfect height but the throw is a little long. might get a shorter short shifter down the line.

and I did not even start removing the gearbox was too hung over and had too many other things to do:( but will get there at some point hopefully I can get home early from work one night this week and get it at least started.
