Re: Saf sprite steerng box
Camber is un changed because your mounting back in the same position just on opposite sides.
We did cut off the drag link arm for reasons i can't remember but if you need to cut small amounts at a time because its hollow.
O and gusset knuckles while your there if not all ready done .

The nissan safari knuckles can be changed from left to right. moving the tie rod mounts to the front for hydraulic/ orbital steering.

Re: 13b turbo landcruiser engine
hi turbos used, engine went well before dropping a connecting rod. I wanted to sell maybe helping someone out with a conversion all the bolts little bits you need for a clean factory job. not just a manifold and a turbo. new turbos are easily purchased.
