jeffbyrne Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Hi Grant, i havent been able to get on here for a while to reply to you. The reason your FR has a hole in the LH chassis rail for steering is because it is an R model chassis, if it was an F model chassis there would not be a hole for steering and your front front spring mounts would be totally different from L to R, what you have is a standard Aussie built post 71 'F' model which is actually an 'FR700R', i.e. R model chassis. Regards jeffro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards jeffro.Hello, it must have been a heavy duty version? as the chassis is deeper than the R model i have, the R model i pulled the cab off and the other R that i wrecked had a much smaller chassis, the left and right side front spring mounts are the same, i am using all the suspension out of it as i must assume it would be higher rated than the R600 stuff? the front axle is a 532i just picked up power steering off a valueliner for it, so i wont have to turn the wheel a million times to turn her, specially needed when backing the double roadtrain up to that third trailer.regards Grant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
