Sounds like we need a maint day at Phill's place to get his ute back to stock and to roll your guards????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone want to help me change the fuel pump in my Ute? Lol, yeah Tocchi, I do agree, but if Phil is happy to put his hand up again we can try for a day for as many as can make it. If no work is needed, it's a good excuse to have a barbie and talk sh*t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back at work and lost your train of thought? Nope, just fitting up 285's on the rear this break and the 275's touched the guards if the back squatted/dipped. Just want to make sure they are clear with the slightly wider tyres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a guard roller and have done many. I know FG sedan has a small lip. Does the ute have a large lip?? I can show you how to do it BUT I ain't touching any car that isn't mine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kyle Get It To Wheelspin Uncontrolably Then Give It Another 5 Pounds Cruise Control 2,697 Member For: 14y 28d Gender: Male Location: Work Posted 16/02/16 04:39 AM Share Posted 16/02/16 04:39 AM Yes limited quality rubber and yes expensive. I've had a few different brands, all in 275/30/20. Yokohama tend to taper in slightly, Bridgestone are a little more square, sumi's taper... Going the KU31's this time in 285. Wider and less difference in rolling diameter when paired with 245/35/20. Wanted to spend the money on some continental S5's, but remembered I'm trying to save for some new 19" rims. Will spend more on rubber when I get them. . It's about a 3/4 inch lip Arron (rear, tub lip). Might just get the local panel beater to do it for $10 a side Will test them out at the drags... Fun times. Although a little worried about my flex plate...... Just cos. Was reading the WAW thread and Steve has me nervous 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
