Wow YBHVE4, ouch!

This was my GEN3.
Took me 18 months to find it but finally did.
Was a 2002, Manual, RX special edition which gave it dual sunroof, different trim, climate, momo wheel and knob. All the bullshit. I put some 18inch wheels off a GEN4, borla extractors and a stereo. Was mint, then i sold it a year later, was getting a few klms on it. Got my money back, couldn't refuse that! Probably shouldn't clog the thread with non e-series' but on the Liberty topic here goes:

kinda a general wagon thread

this is a really nice wagon from the last VCC cruise:

^^ Saw that wagon there, he's done a good job!

yeah that white wagon looks hot as.

yeah cappa trim and the works. only missing the roof spoiler

that white wagon is friggen Awesome.. I want one... LOL

What is it? Just a gli with a kit or a proper xr wagon? More specs on it?

i just hate the rear skirt on that wagon
it looks way to squared off

That was my favourite car on the night. Sits perfectly and looks awesome!

Yep, pretty sure I came when I saw that.

Wow. I like how he's left it "despoilered" too

i think its a mock up XR outside with fairmont ghia inside. looks like it may have started as a Gli or Futura

some one do that to my daily please

my wagons original engine has finally died lucky I have a month unreg permit for my XC...fresh paintjob etc went for a RWC today so sould be on the road in the next 2 weeks then I can take my wagon off the road and fit my new motor and two way sunroof

My Wagon on display at the v8 supercars at Sandown.

Just brought a complete El fairmont so we will be ripping the interior out of that over the next few weeks and slowly placing it in the EB.. Trying to find seats that i like... But atleast we got the Console, dash etc to start making the swap.. Seats will hopefully come one day soon.....

been thinking- whats the difference between E-series rear suspension and post-AU?

would there be any benefit in swapping to a post AU rear end?

I was thinking the same thing, I have some rims with AU offset and was wondering if we can swap the diff from an au wagon

wouldnt post au be IRS? anything before that was live axel wasnt it?

and that white el xr6 mockup is off the hook i love it and that rear skirt looks insain with that kit!

Nah Not in Ford Wagons they are all leaf springs mate, so all live axel.

ahh yer my bad i was thinkin sedans for some reason.

wagons are based off the ute arn't they? hence the leaf springs

Add me on to the wagon owners list and if there is a cruise and its local ill be there

Yeah add me too.

EA 3.9, 4 speed on LPG with close to 400,000km on it.

1 tranny at 180,000 and a head gasket at 200,000km.

A massive truck tranny cooler, conversion to EL thermo fans and a AU steel head gasket and bolts later and shes still running strong.

Forgot to mention a blown single spinner diff compliments of my son with his mates a few months ago, replaced with what im told is a rare leaf spring LSD.
The wreaker didnt realize it was LSD and sold it to me at the single spinner price.....loaded it up and paid real quick before taking off.

its a very sexy car, only thing i can pick on is if it had an el front it would be flawless.

holy mother of shit thats alot of kms..

Would be intresting in the interest of AU offset and big brakes.

Oh, and EF XR6 5 speed with 350xxx kms

I wonder if the leaf springs are any different in an AU-BF wagon compared to EF XR springs? I'm saying this because at work there's a spoon drain in the middle of the carpark, and if you cross it diagonally at anything above 10kph, the EF gets all roly-poly (motherfucker), whereas when I've driven BF wagons & utes at work they don't roll nearly as much, feel much more stable.

Then again maybe it's the kms on the car (370xxx). Now where's my silver medal

maybe its more to do with the sway bar?

You're probably right, I guess roly-poly action is more to do with the swaybar. My EF probably has a stretched-out coathanger for a swaybar.

Yeah that caught my attention too - nicely done but also agreen with John RE the rear bar - one of my pet peeves ever since CCS, SSV and all the places that make aftermarket kits...just didn't look right IMHO.

I had a wagon once upon a time...really should have kept her



























A couple more pics of when she was more 'my baby' and not for sale :
