Very Very Very quick update so everyone isnt left in the dark.
I recieved a whole LOT of parts today and wednesday.

First of all i recieved my T-series rear diff and tailshaft. Got an AE86 one at first, but i have since traded it for a TE72 one with a guy at work. All good there.

Second, i got my TRD engine mounts. Cost: $120 per pair. Replacing the stock ones which are dead. Got a quote for non-genuine replacements at $66 each, not including shipping. The TRD's were including shipping.

Bit small sorry, my white desk can cause focusing problems when im in a hurry.

Thirdly, i got my 10cm boss kit. This is really long for a sprinter, as it needs to clear the indicator stalk. And i dont like to have my hands hitting it all the time, especially when wearing gloves. Most kits, like the SAAS etc are like 5-6cm long and made for the MR2.

Came with a wanky gold Toyota badge. Swapping it for a black/red one at work.

Other than that i got my Hilux calipers, which really arnt as heavy as everyone says. Only 11kg was marked on the parcel, but ill weigh them again to make sure. No pics, too messy to take out right now.

With my diff i ordered some RT142 rear calipers, but i got sent front calipers instead. Will phone up about that tomorrow morning and get them replaced ASAP.
I got a CAD file of a good caliper mount for it. Will explain it sometime later and post pics.

Im flying to Adelaide for the week tomorrow. So not much will be done.
That said i have a my Headlights, Grille, Quads and Short Shifter all coming in the week that i get back, and im picking up a Whiteline Panhard rod in Adelaide to save on shipping.

Thanks guys, ill post back in here while im in Adelaide.

I intend for the diff to go in this weekend after a bit of a cleanup, and i should have finished removing all the sound deadening from the floorpan. Grr that stuff is crap.

Come across a bit of a snag with the XT130 struts in that they require XT130 hubs (or a whole host of other ones which fit) but the stock sprinter ones dont. Ill be getting RA40 ones off a mate on the weekend. These will just bolt on with the new bearing kits which i picked up today. I also picked up a spare inlet manifold that i can cut the mount plate off so i can weld runners for the 20v quads to. I had a look at one down at Meridian motorsports on Monday and found that itll be pretty easy to mount up the 20v throttles. Especially the accelerator actuator, should be perfectly fine . One less thing to worry about.
