Scored a wheel locally and getting one from Vic..no worries on that one.
Changed my mind and pulled the std rubber bushes from the radius rods to chassis and fitted Nolathane instead. Welding the front brackets and crossmember steel plate tomorrow..thats it..its done! Ramps for the truck are under way..will be finished end of next week. Need to get a good tool box for the back of the truck..2 more big tiedowns..some lap sash seat belts and a middle seat for the cabin. Look out !! Here we come!! :spoton:

Hey Rory...
not forecasting that you will need it... but do you have a winch on the truck?
It's very hard to load a car onto a pan in the rain with wheels spinning on slippery steel ramps..
Just a thought ... cause i've been there once or twice!

Cheers Greg..
