satan and todd 125 Posted January 20, 2013 Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 yep an seen a few discos made into tray backs by a few keen lads i know Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gvc 491 Posted January 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 I bought this as an un finished project. Instead of shortening the chassis like some of the tray backs it's got a six foot drop side body on it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gvc 491 Posted January 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 Iv seen a few tray backs not one with a pick up body. It's proving to be a very handy truck. There's still some fine tuning to do yet though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
banjo14 49 Posted January 20, 2013 Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 i keep thinking about doing this with mine but was going to put a defender rear window and buck on it. but very nice you gotta love a disco. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
banjo14 49 Posted January 20, 2013 Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 i think a 2" lift and a set of mud tyres would finish it off nicely Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gvc 491 Posted January 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 Thanks banjo14 still playing with springs and tyres the back has a 4inch heavy duty spring on already. It carrys a ton and a half for fun. I kept the back door for strength and easiness I was in a rush. I use it for work so needed the dropside body for loading pallets. Thinking of lifting the front 2 inch and putting bigger tyres on to help soften the suspension when empty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
