Can get a pic in the following days of my ef xr6 if you would like to see what it looks like? xr has a grey interior hence I went with grey vinyl for the headliner.

Cheers Johnny.

No problem mate,I think the biggest problem with the headliner coming down is due to the glue used,especially with the foam crap they add.

biggest problem is the heat breaking the foam down.

will be bringing a BF wagooon roof back home [from shell i picked up not long back] to use as a template base, so i can see if it will all fit :mrgreen:

not sure if i should grab a 'basic' wagooon lining just for RWC.......... will also be fitting some sort of roof insulation.


Cheers

Thanks!

under the dash mat looks ALOT betterer coz it took me ages to clean the white crap that was on it. look close at the 1st dash pic & you should see it. i didn't look close enough when i bid on it........ vacuumed the floor half a dozen times with the vax. so it should look a lot betterer... hopefully :mrgreen:

when the suns out a bit more i will hopefully bring home the roof cut, so i can see "if" i can mod the interior lights to fit. alll tho the missus may say "WTF!" :lol: :roll:

still have to pull the rear bumper of & drill four 28mm holes in it!............. :shock: .. could not find the right size drill bit locally tho.

eventually will fit a 'black' cargo area trim & a factory wheel support from a factory LPG wagooon. plus i also have this to fit as well.....

sticks to the window rubber so i'm not 100% keen.....

as can be seen by the 'blurred' last pic, you cannot fit the left cap into the right cap wheel centre :roll: so for some reason i have one odd wheel :o goddam it

You mean to fit the larger rotors and calipers?, papasmurf has done this recently and should be able to get you the information needed. Maybe send him a PM.

Hopefully he may log in and see your post,but essentially it's just a slightly larger carrier for the larger caliper but still bolts to the same spots/way the other carrier does.
Do you have the larger rotors and calipers?

Sorry it took so long for me to answer, sorry.

I have standard XR shocks and springs to add, new lwr front control arms, new upper inner bushes, ball joints. I also have the upgraded BF 322.mm and 328.mm calipers plus discs to add.
I have brand new rear arms and and also will be pulling out the cradle to change it's bushes. I have been waiting for the weather to be a little better. :)


This is a quote from papasmurf from fg manifold conversion thread.not sure if this helps at all?
