    yeah im a sucker for pumped/flared guards and 13's

    Was lucky to find this set, most ive found are basically 0 offset,
    the ones i got are 13x7 rear with roughly + 8
    Fronts are 13x6.5 with +16

    Rear rim just sits inside guard, fronts a little out

    Thanks to Peter For the wheel nuts,

    Thanks mate!

    Todays lesson, You can remove a engine without a hoist, and by your self

    Step 1, jack up front, take wheels off, lower car down with 1 brick under each lower arm. Make sure you got a tyre under engine/box.
    This is a good idea to remove your lower brace if you have one, as i learned its hard to drop a engine with that in the way

    Step 2, undo all mounts, caution, engine may jolt a bit.

    Step 3, jack car up and put wheels on with 2 nuts each, then jack even more up onto car ramps.

    Step 4, slide engine out underneath!!!

    DONE!!......

    That's actually good to know.

    What ever happened to this car being "low, wide and lumpy"? Haven't seen much of either!
