Hi guys,
Things are progressing. I got the first set of plates back from the Laser cutter today. Am having some issues with obtaining a tube supplier in Brisbane but haven't reached that stage as yet so have't pushed too hard.
A few update pic are attached. Please note this kit will require you to weld on the rear tabs onto your lower diff spring mount, therefore it makes them universal and should not matter what diff you have.
Not the right style rod end but used for a mock up.
side view
Version 1 (left side) compared to version 2 trangular plates - (Version 1 plate is zinc plated) Also shows the new bush setup.
side view showing hanger plates required for 1200 coupes and sedans - also would be required for 120y's.
version 1 on my coupe with hilux diff
ute update
with a small modification to the trangular plates as shown below, the kit will bolt upto the outside of the ute spring mount, this would require you to punch the stud out that holds the front spring eye and mount the modified plates and bushes. This would be an easier setup then the coupes and sedans.
example of how the trangular plates would need to be modified to fit utes and wagons.
