Hi
I got a 90 Rugger with the 2.8dt, did the springs over diff conversion, running 16" 285 tractor tyres and works perfect for what we do down in central hawkes bay.
daihatsu parts are real hard and expensicve to find and only daihatsu stuff bolts up. mines currently off the road with a broken cambelt - even the cambelts are more expensive.
good to know theres other daihatsu owners in HB.

cheers
Brendon
