Good afternoon all

the waited return to a au has happenned, i stumbled across a 2000 au II ute
5 speed, hard lid, nudge bar, mp3 player, mostley stock i got some ba XR17's comming soon its dark green (congo maybe)

but i have a few questions???

1. whats the easyist way to lower the rear end, ive head to just get them reset,

2. I'm confused with what to do, i glaze into the distance when i look what mods i should do so any ideas are welcome

3. have a few more but they can wait till later

blank out the numberplate area and mount it somewhere else
and turbo it

[rag top]

new lowered springs from kings springs will lower it as well, how low do you want to go?

as for mods, is the ute for work mainly or play?

I've seen someone tinker with a congo green AU2 ute :

was thinking about it, maybe a f6 engine,

extractors

if you want it slammed don't get pedders leaves i got their lowest $800 fitted, 2in gap between tyre and guard. Front is ultra low 6cyl king and looks awesome, back looks like standard xr and is not low enough and au utes don't like lowering blocks so i will have to in back. Maybe try the king leaves and if you enquire let us know the drop and the price if you don't mind. Cheers.

Extractors, cai and snorkle seem a waste of money if its going to possibly be turboed.

As above but worth checking if you have a local "Bursons" store they do lowered rear leave's for a great price but cant remember which brand they were for the life of me Doh !

Congo green AU2 XL LPG forum ute; high series bonnet(JC), Ghia grille(zhodak), 18's(JC via LG); Lowered(b2tf), factory wheel arch flares(Sox), rear cabin lip spoiler, G&D airbox, and a few more bits. I'll let you know when there are some better pics of it.
But I had to raise the rear slightly, too low with the gas tanks :

You can use lowering blocks - up to 38mm if running 18x9s on the rear are fine (I had them on my wagon - similar rear suspension as the utes).
