White 9000 Resto

Well we are dam close now just got to do some wiring fit off's
Mud guards ordered and pick up tomorrow ( Wife paying)

Sure there will be some small issues as was today simple things like battery box mirrors list just goes on but is still a work in progress. Still lots of undercoat

Just chasing thoughts. Put one piece guards on with a minimum of clearance with air bags down pump up and there a fair gap and the centre pole under the guard is down about 80mm any photos

First real test drive today guards needed adjusting and will have to manufacture centre brackets to stop vibration a couple of photos


notice g clamps holding aluminium
Any way we are closer than yesterday

Geoffb,

Love the look of the guards and the short exhaust stacks. looks very mean.

Well first trip on the weekend to White muster went pretty well only a couple of problems would I would consider minor issues


Thank you to those that came up and commented and it was all good

geoffrow
its about time you replaced that kpa gauge in the dash ,

---

yes i know,its got character

Melon with regards to that gauge I still don't know what it is reading
With regards to some of the minor issues never let anyone loose with a grease just generates a hell of a mess by over greasing

Well the next part we will endeavor to install this



Was thinking about put this and the back of the cabin on small air bags and was wondering had anyone else done this and what if any pit falls eg things like radiator support arms (Just looking for ideas and feed back)
If has been done how about some photos
Geoffb

hi Geoff
yuo will neet to remove the top radiator supports from the top of the fire wall ,you will need to make some new stays to support the top of the radiator.and mount them off the chassis. i good idea is to get some front cab mounts out of a truck (like a 401 kenworth) because the airbag cab suspension need movement at the pivot point.just check out a lot of trucks ..dont forget to put a stabalizer bar, shock absorber and a safty cable,... did you know that truck art in wagga make after market side door. to fit in bunks and trucks like cab overs and s-lines
