looks neat, how simple would you say you have found it so far? or has it been math book out and a spirit level lol
tbh easy ish and havent really spent much time on it and will hopefully get easya as everything from a Sierra just bolts back on apart from the prop that will need shortening and the exhaust
but im sure im gonna come across some problems yet lol
Picked up gear box, front diff and props today :)
mate shes looking the nuts going to have to pop down some point this week if your about
Ordered tube for the cage and collected gearbox, front diff and props today
also remember from yearsssss ago i have first dibs :D
first bar tacked in :)
