...it won't go forward or backwards, it will just tear in half when you try to take off. ..right? :D All in all it seems like alot of effort to go to. I would have though it would be easier to make up a custom frame. Surely the only chassis mounts you could retain are engine/box mounts and maybe a ...

ok, mid mount just behind cab, but the motor will be facing backwards.
ie. fan facing the rear, flywheel facing the front of the chassis.

as for putting a longside axle in, it will give you over 12" of width (waste of space, look way funky) the high pinion in the rear will NOT hold up... run a H260 well it won't be streetable so bring on the F U N K A Y :lol: H260, just gotta find one. running 6" wheel spacers to match the front :lol ...

wanna: i am using two long axles to widen the front diff, which will put the 3rd in the middle.

may use a long side off a 75 series so i can widen and offset the rear 3rd aswell.

if i run a divorced transfer (hilux till it breaks) i can run it on either side.

rear engine hilux

ok this maight be a bit hard to understand but here goes: Take a hilux and remove the cab. now imagine the chassis as a rear engine type (engine still in the same place). So the rear of the chassis is the front. and the front is the rear, ok swap the diffs F to R and R to F. 4 link Rear 3 link Front ...
