Practice.

A set of 5 15" wheels has 6 linear metres of weld. I did 2 sets today, amongst other jobs. My hands and arms are quite sore now. :cry:

If you could pick up an old heavyish duty sewing machine/table Pete (the old belt driven type) you could easily flip the motor striaght up with the nt housing sticking up out of the table with probly the short side axle sticking out under the table and with correct size pully for the motor/axle could get the required speed, also with the old table style ones you would get a large foot adjustable throttle. And wouldnt have to do any cabeling :peaceout:

Mums got a few clogging up my shed area would kick em your way abit if you werent so far away haha. Just an idea probly have one already thought out with dimple die legs and lots of fancy fabrication bits on it but worth a try.

16's are for jimny drivers.

You want 17's :wink:

I'm thinking about flipping my 16" sunnies to a decent neg offset (-25 maybe? ) and chucking some beadlocks on them. They will clear 2L brakes.

When I have done as much work as you have I'll come for a drive. Hell, I'll even paint my rims pink. That way you'll get your ass handed to you by a coily with pink rims :thefinger:

Bruce only have RUF, spring and bodylift. No custom link setup with reinforced diffs. Casper is actually the same as 90% of sierras on here, except it just works. And has 2 guys who know it.
