Rock1200, im using KYB r31 inserts and they work great. Not to sure about the TRX rims, i think they have a 22mm off set and are 6 inches wide, I think your wheels may stick out the guards.

BigV , On the steering rod where the strut bolts to, you have the round lip between the bolt holes, in that the lower ball joint nut is, on the 200B ( if i have the right one ) the lower ball joint hole is off set, which will help with your camber problem, but as PIGDOG said the tie rod and ball joint tapered shaft holes are to big. As yet im unable to find any to fit, I have made tapered sleves to fit, they pull up real tight and never had a problem.

what tierod ends do you use with the 200b steering arms, as the hole is bigger than the stanza ones

need to use pretty much all the same lower stuff as the stanza swap, control arms and ball joints and stuff, can use stanza steering arms but they arent offset like the 200b ones so you have more positive camber(bad) but you can use stanza tierod ends

the only bigger tierods ends i have seen that would suit are too long as they are off rack and pinion steering cars

from what i can see you need:
stanza control arms, same as sunny
stanza balljoints
stanza or 200b steering arms
adjustably strut tops
smaller spring perch or coilovers
stanza tierod ends if you use stanza steering arms, ???? tierods if you use 200b

I have 15" TRX rims! will these fit?
Can I just run the Std brakes setup till I get som new ones?
So all I'll need is 200b steering arms, Sunny LCA and the coil over kit?
Can I use std brakes and std insert?

Rock1200, this is what i have in my ute, i have photos in my album. You need late model 1200 or sunny control arms, You are going to have to run 38mm or 40mm off set wheels im using 17x6.5 inch 205x40 tyers with no scrubing at all. Steering arms i think are the 200B offset ones, you need to run them if your not going to use adjustable camber tops. it will have about 1.5 deg. camber, if you want more use adjustable tops. Spring seats need to be removed, and your best to run coilover set up. i can supply a set if needed $195. No the struts dont have to be shortend. Im using Magna disks with r32 4 spots, you need to use a slim bluebird hub, and mechine the disk to fit. I used a DATSPORT caliper mounting braket.
Its a lot of work but if done right you will end up with a great set up.
Scott
