Thankyou so much Dave.
I will give you a call when I am ready, most likely as we come into winter.
I am not the most mechanically sound person, so may need you to do the whole job if ok.
Thanks again and speak soon.

The resemblance is uncanny. Dumping will happen before the Spring. Probably won't be quite as low, I've got a shit driveway.

Yes.....it has happened at last thanks to the much appreciated efforts of a local dubber.
The stance is exactly as I had envisioned. 4" narrow and a bit lower at the rear.
Thanks again to the king....Aaron.

Oh yeah, it's a bumpy ride, but not as bad as i thought it might be.
I would probably struggle if it was an everyday driver, but as a lo n slo cruiser it is wonderful. It makes me smile all the time behind the
wheel....and thats what it is all about. Thankyou everyone for your comments.
