Anyone SAS'ed a 93 Terrano? I believe albundy was looking at it a while back. If so, how did it go. Was it a major?

Cheers

I want a setup like the red one, but i'll settle for the front bumper setup first.
Any takers on modding my truck?
I can offer unlimited funds, i.e. $1.00 down and $1.00 per week; sound like a fair deal? :wink:

The guys in OZ use a MQ Safari front diff as its the right width, but have to swap the side the diff head is on. They then get GQ Safari coil purches, radius arms, steering links, and the shock/coil tower combo that mounts to the chassis.

Looks like it works well, but there's a fair bit involved in swaping the diff head around, mounting spring platforms to diff and chassis etc etc. Definatly not as straight forward as a SAS on a Surf.

But anything can be done :twisted:

if they have to get the head swaped they might aswell just use a complete gq front diff, then when swaping the head get it skinnyed up a bit, save having to get all the gq bits put on etc...

Ahhh, yeah, but then you have issues getting axles made to suit. Custom bits aren't realy ideal. $$$$$$$$$$ and availability.

This is the MQ/GQ set up.
