Good question I use this website for blueprints you will need to register to get larger files. Its free SMCARS.NET Example of landcruiser front end  Print them off as large as I can and then usually do some calculations using the Tyres that I wil be used on the Rig. Its a good starting point and means everything will look right. Or use your axle width and go from there. I then use google image search to find close up photo's for reference. neil | |

Dont panic I still have lots to do yet. I have dropped a clanger I painted the bed assembled (I know schoolboy error) Going to take it apart once it has gone off and paint the unpainted edges so If you change it round you wont have any white bits showing | |
