That would be the frame under a 1995 Isuzu Cameo. I want it straightened with a laser. Not some "panel beaters".

See that wasn't hard now was it, you may get a factual response now.

Good luck finding laser chassis aligner though.
If do by chance find one, unfortunately for you it will be at some "panel beaters"........

Dont you mean a laser guided jig?

Not really lookin to take the body off. Should have started my own thread. Appologies to Rigger.

Fondles. But you don't know any right?

**Thetyim** · 03-01-2010, 05:25 PM

A fifteen year old Isuzu Cameo and you consider it needs laser alignment.
Is there something special about this vehicle that warrants accurate alignment ?
When it was new it never had such accuracy.

Just your basic frame straightening.

Not that I know of, but tell him I will give him some pointers if he likes.

Vin Diesel wouldn't of binned it into the back of a mini bus lol. Sorry dude; the truck looked cool while it lasted. I do agree with another poster about the wheels looking way too small though.

It will be back looking better than before by the end of feb, Yeh I think I will get some chrome 18" rims for it. They are 17" on it at the moment and standard are 15"

**lozillionaire** · 29-01-2010, 07:16 AM

I would try to stretch for 19's or 20's if the budget allows dude because those arches are huge and should be filled with some beautiful wheels.

**Rigger** · 29-01-2010, 07:21 AM

20" are to big, sure they fit with low profile tyres but wouldnt last a week out in the village, 18" with some racing rubber with a little higher profile should fill it in

Not a problem for this fella.

**Rigger** · 09-03-2010, 02:36 PM

I got the pick up back from Chevy, all looks good and goes to Bangkok this week for it upgrades. I have bought a few more bits, Spent about 350k on part upgrades not including the 100k I had all ready spent.
It should take about two or three weeks as many parts have to be custom made. Also will be dyno tuned so I can get the best out of it.

**Travelmate** · 09-03-2010, 03:42 PM

about time!
taken too long already....

Foking tell me about it. The only good thing about it was it gave me a chance to buy more parts

**nedwalk** · 10-03-2010, 05:10 AM

I deserve it

Just because Travelmate told me too I just asked Philip to find me a nice set of 18" chrome 5 spoke rims or some nice blacked out rims to show off them big brakes

**Travelmate** · 10-03-2010, 09:07 AM

LOL, as soon as you get her done post up the pics of the truck and the mods.
By the way 18" is so yesterday. Should consider 20".

We have all ready been down that road and the reasons why I dont want 20", This is a race truck not a west coast custom

Anyone got any ideas of what mags would look cool note the front will have a spoiler and will be a little lower, with side steps and rear bumper removed
