this seems quite complicated make sure when you do it you take tons of photos to show off here aye and the n ill be right. i get the general idea of it all just without seeing it i just cant quite imagine where everything would end up.

[Mike]

i'm only doing the back at the moment (don't have enough jack stands to do it all at once) but when i get it to the front i'll take some pics and when i've finished i can let you know what i had to do and what i had to get

[Zook_Fan]

that would be much appreciated and thanks heaps for all the info tonight i hope i didnt bore you too much

[Mike]

its no problem i've just been passing on info i got off people on here anyway what sort of zook do you have?

[Zook_Fan]

1991 Sierra NT Soft top and its black

that is a few days after i bought it but i have made up a really nice rear bar and a bar across the windscreen for spotties as well by now

[Mike]

a 91 NT? i thought they stopped making NTs in 88?
good to see a fellow black soft top owner

[Zook_Fan]

i think it is how do you tell the difference?

[Mike]

thats a pretty straight looking zook
its a wide track you can tell by the metal flares
do you have any pics of the rear bar and light bar (they are both things i was looking to do to mine)

[Zook_Fan]

yeah even though it is standard at the moment i still think it is a beast lol

[Zook_Fan]

how do you post pics on this site?

[Mike]

do you have them on another site or are they off your computer?
if your uploading them from your computer click on "photo gallery" in the main menu on the left of the screen then start your own ablum then press upload pics

or just add them as an attachment to your reply

[Zook_Fan]

[Zook_Fan]

thats when it was half done i will run down and grab some quick pics tommorow of both for ya it is completeky closed in and painted black. the bottom tube also carries around the corner and then is capped off at the ends

[Mike]

looks good its a clean design and i like the LED tail lights
you should start a thread in introduce yourself and put up some pics
you'd have the cleanest zook on here

[Zook_Fan]

tonight is the first night that i have actually talked to people for any length of time the rest of the time i have read a great deal of stuff that is on here but just never had anything really to contribute

[Zook_Fan]

[Mike]

even if you didn't contribute anything you could still show off your ride
i'm sure people would be interested in the rear bar and light bar you made

[Zook_Fan]

yeah once i got some pics i was gonna chuck it into the new fabrication thingo.

[Mike]

i'm looking foward to seeing your light bar design because i was looking at my zook in the garage today and was trying to work out how to make a light bar
are you gonna make anything else for it?

[Zook_Fan]

Going to make a winch bar in time but i have only got small little bits of steel left from the back bar at the moment so i will wack them together and make some little rock sliders down the side. looking to make a set off draws in the back so i can have somewhere lockable to put tools and recovery things as well

[Mike]

its prettty funny we have the same model car thats the same colour and same year and we've got the same plans
i need some sliders and a new front bar but i've got to finish the suspention first

[Zook_Fan]

yeah i got to do my suspension but i can steal dads steel so i can just make stuff for it coz it doesnt cost me anything more then the lights or whatever but the rear bar cost me a bit to make coz he didnt have any 2 inch pipe lying around. And those lights werent cheap either. Lift is the next target for my money and in about 6 weeks i can get all the neccesarry components in order to do the 5" lift we were talking about earlier.

[Mike]

5 inch? are you gonna do the 3inch body lift?

[Zook_Fan]

nah you get 2 inch from springs 1 inch from shackles and 2inch from body

[Mike]

oh ok get your shocks and springs and stuff then make some shackles to fit what you need

[Zook_Fan]

yeah just cruisin said he would knock some up for about $100 which is cheaper then anywhere else i know so ill go with him on that one

[Mike]

thats pretty good there is no point making your own if you can get some that cheap

[Zook_Fan]

yeah so what have you done to yours so far?

[Mike]

extractor
2inch exhaust
webber
3in body lift
1in higher reset springs
31s
sports steering wheel and race seats
thermo fan
front and rear spotlights
and i had fix a whole bunch of broken shit
