Put in some 20mm Coil Spacers on the weekend.

During





Spacers in place




Very Happy with them, because my bullbar and winch caused my 2" EFS kit to sag.

jealous
last time I drove a speedboat I went waterskiing in the lakes with a load of mates about 30 years ago
when it was my turn to try to waterski it was more like sub aqua diving with the aid of a speedboat :lol:

Its been a while since I've updated so I thought I better let you guys know what I've been up too.

things have been slow on the mods lately ( spending too much time playing with my boat )

My Jimny developed the death wobble again :angry:

so I decided on having a go at shimming the king pins, using a shim kit from a local retailer that you cut to suit.


Zook on the stands






this is what I used


too make these





I also discovered my bearings need replacing soon, so I will be buying a kit and doing them in a week or 2. now my zook has far less wobble than before, some of the remainder is due to needing to get my wheels aligned and balanced. Next i'm toying with the idea of getting a steering dampener.

Hey guys, its been a while since I've posted.

I've added dual batteries to my zook









& a Dual Din DVD Player











Shot of me and another Jim



Also been playing with some LED lights









Using one of these off ebay I can turn them on and off with a remote



Finally washed my RIG on the weekend for a protest we had here in TAS because the GOV is trying to close off major 4wd tracks on the west coast. we had 320 4wd's convoy to a rally and had over 4000 protestors all up



and Finally got a new mod B)
