GV_QLD did you have to redrill the hole for the a-arms on both sides for the mod to runn the three bolt flange cv on both sides. I was reading the write up and it didnt state if you did it on both. I am assuming so to keep both side even. Here is a pic of what I mean. Also did you cut up two more ...

Sorry one more question.
Is the back half of the diff (centre/3rd member or what ever you call it) on vits alloy aswell. if it is I guess it is a weak point also.
If so I will need to get the Gv centre.

I see makes sense now! I think for now I will get the steel diff and see how I go with the stock cv's for a while. I might still "hagen" it for convenience of changing. At this point I have an ample supply of cheap cv's. I am hoping with the stock set up and with a fair bit of panel and other things ...

Just a though, that spacer for the flange would be nice and easy for the passenger side and for the drivers side you could do the "hagen" mod to allow the driver's side to run the easy pull out cv (pass side cv) and then you would only need another spacer. You would also not need the hub spacer as ...

Also is this the toyota adapter kit. Is the spacer attached to the flange for the passenger side and bolts to the toy cv.
But what is the deal with the other thing. I cant visualise how that fits.

I found a steel diff from a 98 grand vitara today. My vit is a 92.
What do I need, is it just the diff. Will the centre and cv's etc from mine fit into that or do I need the whole lot.
I am assuming it is just a bolt in replacement.
Cheers

That toyota cv mod looks good. So I assume you run it with a steel cast gv diff?

Yeah good point, when that happens I will look at the price of a steel one from a grand vit. If too expensive then I will be looking at SAS I guess. But so far spares for the vit have not been too pricey as the wrecker has heaps. When I got some spare cv's off him he said hewas pretty sure they were ...

OK before you start to flame, I have read all the posts on lifting the vit and excess drop etc and how it affects the cv angles and that causes them to break. SO would it be fair to say that the strongest set up (without modifying it) would be the stock set up. Ie no lift and stock spring travel. I ...

Hmm considering as far as she knows it was a gift :twisted: she does not care as long as it stays out the back out of the sight of the general public. It is nearly done now, I have just uted it, bobbed it and moved the tank up ontop of the chassis. I just need to bend a few more bars for the exo and ...

Rear is taken care of, I am pretty sure its fronts so I will run with that. With the shim required does anyone know if it will be so if the diff is welded.

Dude if your living in Wanneroo now we will take care of it, you go and cut the plate or what ever you are going to replace it with and we can weld it in. Even a crappy noob welder like me can do that. then tap it down, fibreglass it and paint it. Bog covers a multitude of sins
