Hi
Hi folks not got a patrol yet, currently riding about in a 80cruiser, I really want a y61, been and looked at a couple but was put off by the chassis rot, so heres the question is it possible to find a 61with a decent chassis or are they all like that, thanks.

Depends what age you're looking at bud, Y61's aren't any worse than any other trucks for rot as a rule but with them being live axled all round it's more likely they'll have been in amongst the muck and as usual if you don't clean the mud off then the rot can set in.
My chassis is fine on my '54 |
