Tyler06 266 Posted June 8, 2013 Rolled my rear guards but found that the top trailing arms really need a re-think. Due to me re-engineering the chassis that holds them they are not on exactly the same angle and have stuffed the bushes. Now the diff twists so that isnt helping my situation. I was always gonna fab up some boxed in adj ones but now its the next thing on my list :-) <br /> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZGMitch302 5 Posted June 11, 2013 Wow, it's awesome to see a TE getting this level of attention. What a beast! Will always have a soft spot for this! One of my good mates ZGMitch302 still has his first one! Bright orange 250, 4 speed wagon! And rust, don't forget the rust! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tyler06 266 Posted March 7, 2014 Really? Cant believe I havent been in here for this long! Been busy with the family and other projects but im back onto SNAIL ETR. Sean/stumper/clevo120y has finished up with my head so im gonna make a little road trip down to pick it up. Block is going in for new cam bearings AGAIN LOL. Oh btw I wiped a lobe off my cam so hence the pull down again. My biggest predicament at the moment is no one in Aus has the valves I need. Hopefully I will have it ready for the engine dyno within 8weeks parts permitting haha. The only engine dyno owners we have here just happen to be customers of my work Superoo so I know they will look after me and they are even getting a plate made up especially for the job ;-) Im still gonna use a solid as funds dont permit the big move to roller but good things to come soon hopefully :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
