Cool trucks ..both...welcome aboard

CARAMAN your truck is completely different to mine, have you got any more pics of it? all around and inside and the engine?

[caraman]

I'll get some and post on Tuesday. The inside of mine looks identical to yours except mine has 2 seats with a parking brake in the middle and yours looks like a bench seat. The bed on mine and the access are the same. I did notice that the headlight setup is different. Mine has just a round ring around the headlights and yours are rectangle.

Figured I could get some shots on the trailer instead of waiting. Let me know whats different.

what year was yours again? they are pretty much completely different, my battery is under body in front of the drivers side rear wheel, the interior is completely different, i like yours better,

[caraman]

It's an 88, the battery on mine originally was under the bed on the passenger side by the windshield washer reservoir but the previous owner put in a bigger battery and mounted it in the front of the bed. I moved it to the front/side to make room for the toolbox.
Interior dash looks similar, just some tweaks between years I guess. I noticed that your brake fluid refill is in the center at the front floor. Mine is in a panel on the side of the dashboard. Pretty amazing how those guys put these things together.

Rims - tires ....
those look HUGE

I have a 92 ACTY

Having a HECK of a time trying to get rims that will fit
And I am only trying to get street stuff to work

My latest attempt was 13's from a 95 civic
The rims are rubbing the struts ( so obviously the spacing is wrong )

I have tried rims from an escort, same thing
from a subaroo justy and older suzki swift - wrong bolt pattern

So it would be good to know
tires, rims, spacers????

[caraman]

I'm not the one with all the answers on this subject. I bought it this way and most on these forums would probably tell me that the lift is too high and the tires are too big, maybe so. I believe the guy that sold it to me said that the ATV tires are 26". Don't really know what size rims I have but the bolt pattern is the same as the stock wheels that he gave me. Read another post saying that the bolt pattern should be 4x100 on these and if you use a 10-15mm spacer you can run wheels with a fwd offset without interference (don't really understand what that last part means) I do get a slight rub when cranking the wheel in reverse but other than that, it works for me.

[honda-acty]

Well for some strange reason i tried some different wheels on mine today and the stud pattern is bigger than anything i can find, why would brittish one's be different to then you have in the U.S?

[caraman]

Was yours imported for use in Britain or brought over from Japan? Mines straight from Tokyo, maybe that's the difference.

still for 300 its a good deal!

[honda-acty]

Well its got english all over it so id say it was made to be sold in the uk, Yeah 300 is cheap mate, got to do the clutch on it next as its slipping like a T**T

[caraman]

That's the difference, mine has Japanese all over it, even on a couple of items on the dash.
