- In this video we show you step by step on Minitubbing a Holden VN Commodore, If your looking for wheel clearance and need more room then doing a Mini Tub job on your car is the way to go. if you do it like we show here your car will still appear factory for most people as your using the factory tubs and widening them.
You can also go a full tub or chop your factory tubs out and replace them with a aftermarket tub. This is the easiest way to minitub a car.

'The most basic and easiest way to mini tub"
the way you fellas make it all sound so easy has me shaking my head, thats a hard job. Well done looks shmicko
My third time watching this honestly i think it shows that its basic. You can get kits to do it but how you moved it across is spot on best option
Yer for sure mate, like if you have money to spare then buy the new tubs and go down that path. but this works perfect for most people.
You are legit where i want to be at in 5 years time. My own workshop doing custom fab work like this myself. I already do motor swaps and pretty much anything suspention and drivetrain out of my shed at home
Thats awesome mate, then keep it up. you will get there, having a factory is a game changer.
Looks sic maaaan.. Tip maybe a welding blanket over interior when grinding and welding. Nice job..
100% bro, usually would but trim was getting redone once it left my shop. i should of used one anyway i know haha

Awsum watch bro

Sweet video recommendation by YT, subed and checking ya other vids out now haha as you do!
Appreciate the sub mate, =) legend!
I think u did good mate
Thanks mate.
Awesome job mate, was wondering with this type of mini tub can you fit a a 275/60/15 tyre in there?
Yer i reckon you could mate. youd want to build it with the tyres there so you could be 100% before welding it all up tho.
Hey mate im looking at doing the same thing to my car. im just wondering did you have to move the bottom bracket for the shock absorber
Hey Mate, You have a few options. You can cut off the factory mount and weld on a bolt so its very similar to a ute diff, you can just swap out to a ute diff if its easier for you too ( i have done this before) but if your keeping the factory setup you will need to do something. if you get a coilover shock or similar they have a swivel eyelet mount at the bottom. This car already had those in it so it had enough movement to allow for the relocation.
@@RCSMediaDivision cheers
what song was that at 10:47 ? also you have yourself another new subscriber
Hey Mate, Appreciate the sub. its called Move it by Muevelo not sure where you can stream it. we get most of our music from soundstripe. some from Lickd music.
great vid and very imformative mate...too much silicone haha kidding!!! 😁
Hahah thanks mate appreciate it
Would the cost be the same on a hx kingswood thanks peter
Id allow the same mate, For this style of tub
Any mod to how rear shocks mount after moving inner guard in
This had coilover rear shocks so they have a ball joint mount and it can move enough for the shock to be fine. if your running a standard shock you can just cut off the mount and weld on a bolt so the shock mounts onto a bolt. exact same as how the utes are. that way it can be on the angle.
We’re are you located and what does something like this cost thanks peter
Located In Geelong, Victoria. On a commodore rear tubs basic package is $2500 like this car or premium package is $4400 thats new tubs but still not a full tub. Email info@rcshq.com for more details / bookings
Would this be the same price for a hx kingswood. Thanks peter
Hey mate could you tell me the specs that the wheels were ?
22x8.5 fronts and 22x9.5 rears from memory. ill sus out with customer for exact
Hi do you shorten diffs
we dont sorry, no
Good work but not covering the parcel shelf before welding inside the car 😢
The cars getting fully retrimmed. everything on the car that has not already is being replaced. but as a good practice i should of anyways for sure.
What’s the split tubs worth on a vn?
Hey Mate, rear tubs basic package is $2500 like this car or premium package is $4400 thats new tubs but still not a full tub
How much.......
The stone guard isn't a inch thick its a few mm your showing a section of seam sealer hanging off it not stone guard. Some etch primer and rust kill would have been nice so this doesn't rust out for the customer.
All good points mate, but the one we used is made to go on bare metal. maybe im wrong?
Spends 70k on a VN still puts on a set of winruns
😂
Sounds like you never driven on them. All 3 of mine run them. Wet or dry great grip and great wear characteristic?
PLUS I'm running "Chinese Simmons"....To replace the standard "Made in China" embossed MY12 Calais V rims...😉
Hey mate what would this cost for an xe falcon?
Hey Mate, on a commodore rear tubs basic package is $2500 like this car or premium package is $4400 thats new tubs but still not a full tub, not 100% on XE. but you could budget around the same i reckon. id just need to have a good look in person
@@RCSMediaDivision no worries was just wondering I’ve started a Barra turbo xe and have a rod shop 9” done to the rail and was curious will definitely be giving you guys a message when I get a bit further into the build.
Appreciate you getting back to me especially so soon
@@killerslothgaming9568 Sounds tough mate, would love to see it and if we can help build it we would be happy too
We’re about are you located thanks peter
@@peterkeating6302 Hey Peter, located in Geelong, Victoria. Australia. flick us a email if you want to get work done. info@rcshq.com
Fuck yeah 😍😍
Thanks brother!
Donk
The wheels look stupid on it, way too big...18s would be perfect.
Each to their own though.
I hear you mate, the owner loved them. not for me either but im happy to help anyone. if we were all the same the world would be pretty boring
@@RCSMediaDivision Very true yes.
Still a really good job on your part too btw👍
