J-Calico Posted October 20, 2013 Author Share Posted October 20, 2013 Nah, just buy this? Its a bit pricey and im probley going to do it differently now after googling it tonight. This way works though. http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-parts-accessories/bmw/exterior/auction-650749960.htm just double check the bolts size with your subframe and these^ and try haggle down on price due to them not selling for months. They are pricey for what they are right,I'm gonig to 'consult'(lol) a skilled fabricator friend to see if he can replicate it on a much cheaper budget/for a better price, that seems slightly rediculous. There alllll miiinneeeee hahah. should really come and grab them/give you money. edit: thats gannnnnkkk. got the bc's welded up yet? want me to grab them and give them to mikey for you? SHOW ME THE MONEY BIARCH! ha Na not yet Mitch, hehe I see him regularly enough but no thank you, I'll get chicken to do it. Even though 'Russ' is probably easily capable, I trust Chickens knowledge on weld penetration and materials/metalurgy etc etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANT Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 they havent sold in months. Thats why i said haggle. 150 would probley be about right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-Calico Posted November 11, 2013 Author Share Posted November 11, 2013 Whatprogress hah! Wasting money on Nissan bearing runners/not making enough in the first place ANT/old Toyota wierdos, most Toyota undercarriages are riddled with eccentric bolts in them. A friend and I went to strip what we were under the assumption was 4 pinion G-Series LSD out of a rusty as fuck mkIII Supra that had the rest of the driveline pilfered out of it, and there's two sets in the rear, and at least one in the Front. My JZS147 Majesta does, I'd hazard a guess most Toyotas do in multiple places. Rob some out of something. I have a couple sets now, they might need re-passivating or some such, but free baby!

ANT Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Thats what i did and i put it back together today with fresh grease ready to go back in tomorrow arvo.Just got to change the outer bush in the control arm as its a 14mm internal bush and the ecentric bolts are 17mm.i used a bush from a ford f150 or some shit. Basicly i just grabbed the standard adjustable toe bolts out of the t series subframe i was taking out and also drilled the 3 spot welds out of the ecentric bolt locater tab things and welded them onto the camber side f series subframe. Was, So, Fucking, Easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
