olly27 Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Got me a 77 620 3 owner ute she needs a bit of tlc but am putting time and effort into it to turn it into a cool lowered wheels through deck dirtbike hauler.Here in NZ we are big on the enduro dirtbike scene and this will be one cool way to get there.

datzenmike Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 You will need a picture hosting service like Photobucket. Quote Link to comment

olly27 Posted August 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 Trying to upload photos through photobucket but it's proving harder than getting new parts and restoring the ute. Any tips would be helpful , the pics are uploaded to photobucket but can't attach them to my posts? Quote Link to comment

GreenEggs&Ham Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Tits looking ute mate! Im really digging the bed. How much rear suspension travel to arch is there? 1 Quote Link to comment
olly27 Posted August 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 With 2 bikes on theres about 30mm travel to bump stops but it travels nice,heavy springs and munro gt gas shocks keep it all good . Not to comfy going for a drive unloaded tends to hop a bit but they are very rare over here so I take it out every chance and I know a good physio. 1 Quote Link to comment
