Hi new kid on block, Welcome to my Group
Iv'e had my jumbuck for nearly a year now, and have owned many utes in the past and I find the ride like a typical ute. a bit bouncey when empty and better with a small load. (again typical ute) however the road handling is excellent.
I fling the jumbuck into corners and roundabouts much harder than i would have dreamed of with my old one tonner or a commodore ute.
The engine is from a mitsubishi mirarge 1.5L EFI
I find its a little under powered, prefering it was a 1.8L or 2.0L.
And recent enquireies to proton say there are no planes to increase the engine size at the moment.
All that aside I love this little ute. best of all at petrol stations.
This week I have installed a top strut bar in my jumbuck. I will post all details on construction shortly.
Please feel free to search the photo folder and all the pictures.
Kind Regards Neil
