Re: Custom wreckluse land cruiser (lots of pics) got my gearhead light bar today on a meet, on the way home i swung by the workshop and rigged it up... http://i1231.photobucket.com/albums/...ps1fb8d704.jpg http://i1231.photobucket.com/albums/...psb20b8efe.jpg also welded on tabs for pan hard bar, now just got to make the bar itself! also had a great run out with my jeep. http://i1231.photobucket.com/albums/...psf57287f4.jpg |
Re: Custom wreckluse land cruiser (lots of pics) Nice light bar ,Im still trying to pick which one I want for mine . I wish I still had the Willys , that color is a Kobelco mini excavator blue . it was fun while I owned it |
Re: Custom wreckluse land cruiser (lots of pics) Have you thought about shortening the Stinger? Looking a little large now that you have lowered the Roof Line. Looking Good though what plans for colour? |
Re: Custom wreckluse land cruiser (lots of pics) Quote:
more cutting and welding it is then! As for colour I was thinking silver cage or cleaning it up and laquering the bare steel, body work possibly baby blue. but not 100% sure on either. next build I'm making a list and sticking to it. |

Once it gets some scratches on it it'll really show up. Silvers Good or Gun Metal Hurry up and get it done."thumbsup" |

its getting there though I was hoping to have it done sooner but injuring myself earlier in the week has really slowed me down and back up paying work which also needs doing :roll: |
Re: Custom wreckluse land cruiser (lots of pics) Dont rush it , thats what I was doing and now its slow down and really sit back and look at it , make sure your happy with it first. Yours looks really good so far , are you putting a winch on or lights? |

Ditched the CMS today running the chassis so low I couldn't get a panhard to work and without bumpsteer was crazy, so back to axle mounted. just a few last tweaks then on to chassis clean up then paint. :) |
Re: Custom wreckluse land cruiser (lots of pics) Hey South , I just noticed my skid plate/ tranny mount doesnt fit any more , did your chassis move at all on the bottom ? for some reason mine did , not much but enough. So its back to shop for mine , Ill figure it out . |
Re: Custom wreckluse land cruiser (lots of pics) 1 Attachment(s) if u still have parts of the body layin around if u cut from the door jams back and wrap it around wreckluse chassis it lines up pretty well and u can get rid of the plain jane side panel ill see if i have a pic of when i had mine done here u go |

Re: Custom wreckluse land cruiser (lots of pics) Got a delivery today from cappu, would love the VP stuff but can't afford it! http://i1231.photobucket.com/albums/...psa718a333.jpg http://i1231.photobucket.com/albums/...psc12550cd.jpg also tested out the new light bar http://i1231.photobucket.com/albums/...ps7d9531d0.jpg and as I had two sets of steering components thought i'd better try out four wheel steer! http://i1231.photobucket.com/albums/...ps0c0f8c6d.jpg http://i1231.photobucket.com/albums/...ps52eac63d.jpg and electrics were thrown on so I could have a little test drive http://i1231.photobucket.com/albums/...ps95554180.jpg really pleased with how it drove took it for a quick spin over some rocks in the garden but with all the rain lately the sand stone was super slippy so not much of a proper test. like the 4ws though! |

Re: Custom wreckluse land cruiser (lots of pics) Thanks south...they got a web site ? I mean besides Ebay? I hate EBay 18 pounds ....about $30 I think ...not bad |
Re: Custom wreckluse land cruiser (lots of pics) Quote:
which is exactly what turned up when i ordered the cappu stuff. yeah about $30 but that was in an auction i think the normal price is more than that! |
Re: Custom wreckluse land cruiser (lots of pics) thanks South...that steering linkage looks pretty interesting. how's it holding up ? |
Re: Custom wreckluse land cruiser (lots of pics) Well only run it a couple of times in the garden so far and seems ok, although i've decided to take out the big connector bit between the drag bar and the steering link arm. if you see what i mean? |
