How do you fix something if you dont know where the problem is?

My front calmini struts are still fine, the rear shocks were crap and did not last long at all.

I know the area of the problem, but without actually putting it on a machine and finding it, I can't be sure exactly what it is.

Anyway, the fix is to either put an offset bolt in the front mount point of the right control arm and drag it a few mm in toward the center of the car. Either that or drill the hole out a bit the similar way and fill the excess in with weld or washer or something.

I was considering throwing some new shocks/struts in but I'm just gunna flog it off. I wanna play with the big boys and 30s aren't gunna do any justice.

???. Either one as a stocky would be a joke....course they'd be modified
I'm considering buying the one at work but it still needs a bit to be finished. GQ diffs, 35" ag tyres, vn engine, LWB chassis with custom USEABLE tray.

If not, i'd build something similar just with lux diffs and 35s

Fair enough.

Just so you know, fitting a VN motor to a sierra is gayer than aids.

Well it works and runs, so I don't see the problem. Heaps more power then the 1.3 donk

That it is.

I had a similar set-up with bundy diffs in a Maruti. It was great offroad. Plenty of torque etc, but I always regreted fitting that lump of shit motor. It took away everything that was fun about a sierra.

Still, if its finished, well built and cheap, why not.

3K or something as is?? not too bad really.

We were gunna drop the body and engine onto a rolled 80series that we took the v8 6.2 chev engine out of, but I think that's falling further and further into oblivion.
