Jase Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 getting ready to drop the commie donk in the ute, what you guys reckon whip the cab off and mount it then drop it back on top, block it up 6 inches and mount it then drop it back on or cut the trans tunnel out and mount it? what has 6 stud 2wd vented disks ? l200 etc that have drop spindles availible? that would bolt up to b1600 A arms? can you use a clutch master as a brake master to run independant front and rear brakes when running an auto ie plumb it and bridge the pedal for the cert?

shizzl Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 its up to you.. not too hard to lift the cab off these ae.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rxtoy Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 if you're going to fuck around with front arms you may as well swap to hilux, not that much of a major, can get drop spindles easy, can go 5 stud which gives you an unbelievably sweeter selection of wheels and it would be pretty simple to put a hilux diff in the back too, check width first though. you could buy the rn25 one of the guys off here is selling for a skinny diff, they're a heaps better width than most hilux ones and you can later centres in, just not axles unless you get them shortened and resplined. plus if you have to cut the tunnel cab off, put engine in, tack, put cab on minus tunnel, check clearances, take cab off, final weld, cab on, sort tunnel. bit of fucking around with taking the cab on and off but you'll get the best result. cheers Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase Posted April 14, 2008 Author Share Posted April 14, 2008 yeah tis true bout the range of wheels for hilux but i like 6 stud and the the steelies i have for it, wanna go stealth rat rod look not shiny pervert look considering its gona be laying skids pretty frequently, they have a n uneven wishbone setup shorter at the top, spoke to a mate last night and hes going to build me my own gantry, two A frames that look like swing sets on 100mm wheels with two 6m channel tracks for them to run in then a endless chain on each, should be sweet then will bolt a frame under the cab so i can flip it like a big dodgy rotisserie, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
