Treg - It seems like you'd see the speedo better if you move it to the driver's side!

Just an observation......

tregs, Are you thinking of doing the R/P steering the same as Darryn on AFF?, I still have my doubts where it will have bump steer or not, and if you want to get it really low!, I think the EL Falcon conversion would be the go for you!. Your chassis is looking really great I like the blue, it also looks like you have moved the truck to a new home!.

Hey Allan I want the r/p steering I am leaning towards the el front end. We're you doing an el front end ?
I have moved the truck out to my dads place as I'm building a house hope to be finished in march as long as the cook stops changing things lol

That looks good I'm going the el route now lol can I get the measurements off you ?

Alan Mclennan · Post by **Alan Mclennan** » December 10, 2011, 1:09 am

I don`t think measurements would work, and they are starting to get a bit pricey!!, the kit is a piece of cake to fit though!.
Have you been down to The Pickup place yet?, their in Thomastown VIC

The mechanic I use has one of my peddle boxs and is test fitting a electric power steering column in it, that may be a cheaper option to gain power steering!

Yer I've seen there kits I thought it might of been cheaper to make it myself if not I'll bite the bullet and buy there's .
Are you making kits for your bonnet ?
