Right,
So i just bought myself an 80. I'm really stoked and can't wait to get it dirty. Some of you may be familiar with it, i happened to come across this post after i bid on it viewtopic.php?f=32&t=7441
So it's a bit more bling than i like but all in all looked really neat and drove well. It does have a few issues though. Diffs not engaging, but from what i have read this should hopefully be a fairly straight forward fix. The air con seems to have a life of it own, switching between ice cold to hot at will. It's also currently running on 35" AT tyres. I could definitely feel the braking was under strain by the the size of the tyres. So first mission is to have some 285/75 R16 BFG KM2's fitted, which i'll be doing this saturday after i collect it. I'll be going to silverline tyres, their prices seem reasonable.
Next mission, and this brings me to my question, is to get rid of the chrome bull bar . I see that frogs island are running a special on bumpers and sliders for 80's.
Anyone here have any experience with their front bumper and sliders? The price seems really good compared to everything else that is available. For the price of an ARB you could just about get the frogs island bumper and a winch.
Also any suggestions as to where i could get a spare wheel mount for a roof rack?
Cheers
Ryan
