Hi Gunning,

My slider came from Victoria, a Cleveland V8, C4 'box & 9inch diff. I'm guessing the rules may have changed, it was plated for gas in  1995, I'm thinking that was when the running gear was put in. I drove it up from Sydney, it was pretty tame on gas, also has a low ratio diff I was told, to tow a bobcat.

Anyway, I could get some pics up of the instal. I have taken the gas out, now need a carby,  have an Ipco gas carby spare if you want to go that way.

Not doing it for hooning, it will tow one day but cruising is my aim, I'm  happy to pay for the fossils!

My two cents worth, cheers!

downhill.

Sure Gunning, I'll get under it from a few angles, I'm IT challenged but have a book for dummies! One pic is too big to post, the cross member had been notched and mounts fabricated welded on. I have put new engine mounts in, the rubber ones, an easy fit so the fab job was well done. The C4 gearbox needed the mount to be moved rear wards also an easy job to replace the standard rubber type mount. This has a bit of work done too, to reuse the cross member.

If you don't mind , I could send to your pm. I also have a standard van for comparo pics if you wish.

My pm is perryc3@hotmail.com.au.

Passion and persistence  make you invincible!

Cheers, downhill.
