turoa · Post by **turoa** » Mon Apr 09, 2007 2:37 pm

Okay, front is in already after having started only this morning. I thought it was pretty funny that 2 15 year olds can do a diff swap before lunch :shock:

Heres the pics

The new disco lift kit

Nibby, James says this ones for you posting about rim action on his auction

Then its out

Playing with the nissan front

Then we got the nissan front in
With a 31"

Then with a 33" on the other side (the only spares we have)

Heres me posing

Nice work fullas. Whats the story with certing it?? Small safety tip, would put the hilift jack handle up into vertical position. saves kicking it and potentially have it slide out from under load.

How "bolt in" is the conversion?? Guy up this way has done this mod too his and he is stoked with it. Doesnt have too baby it any more.... runs 35" silverstones and its pretty impressive

Awesome work guys!!
Are the creepys gona be kept on the disco??

Rex, the nissan radius arms line up, and the coil mounts line up. Thats about it. We have to do custom panhard, draglink, caster, and brakes. I think MRO is stoked with todays effort.

Rok and wopass -

And thanks for the good work comments

nzhunter - Thanks for the comments. The Creepys wont stay on there because they are my dads, but we are going to lift it high enough so 35's will fit in the future. I think he is keen on a set of creepys.

We'll need to make a hybrid panhard. It might even be better to get an engineer to make a hybrid adjustible panhard with the ends that I have.

What was that last part, I didnt quite hear it?

DaveM suggested someone to do an adjustable panhard in this thread...

Don't they stay in the outbox until they are read by the recipient?
