Hi guys,
Going for a more stronger set up and since the r31 aren't available here in the USA the ford 8.8 is my best possible option. LSD and with disk on both end as well as cheap and easy to find makes this a top option instead of the IRS swap I was considering. Plus launching on slicks might be in the future.
Anyways how do you guys mount these live axle?
I don't want a full drag set up with box tubing subframe.
So I was thinking narrowed with shorter axle.
And then all mounting from the stock rear end are transferred/made custom to the 8.8
So it would be essentialy a bolt on rear end without modification to the datsun body.
Is this how narrow rear end are adapted? Or is there something else?
I rear the tech wiki but nothing is really covered on this so I assumed it simple the way I stated it.
Inputs?
Thanks
