fitting 35z on bighorn
just brought another bighorn its a 1990 2.8 intercooled turbo the last one i had was highly modded but everything was done before i got it. what i want to do is do solid front end on it and lift it enough to fit some 35 inch creepys under it
. whats the best way of going about lifting it, body lift etc. but what bout springs. any help would be great.

have a read through the link above there are about 5 pages i think, its very very far from instructions for your big horn but it should give you an idea of the sort of work involved.

, il PM him aswell. bin talking to Dean( zookfest) the idea is now to spring the whole thing over and run cruzer diffs front and rear. does anyone who makes 1 or 2inch wheel spacers and what sort of coin are they worth.

Re: fitting 35z on bighorn
There are lots of different ways of doing a SAS on the Isuzu. Check out madterrano's write up on here. There are a few write ups on club isuzu also and lots of helpful people there. It was relatively easy with good advice and help. We did ours cheaply the whole SAS cost us less then an ARB locker, but google it and you'll see people who have spent big $$$. We are still in the build stage, but happy to answer any questions.
