you might have to change the length of the steering rod, maybe you could use a GQ even.

i have a gu 2.8 with the 4.6 gears.
i have gq diffs under my buggy and wanting to go up gear sizes so i can run 42" iroks and get a wider track.

trading the gu in on a 80 series so i thought i might swap the gq diffs into the gu and keep the gu diffs for the buggy. :D


or put the gq diffs in the gu and use the gu diifs under the 80 then use the 80 diffs under the buggy.. confussed yet?

ok.....I think I get it. You are swapping a buggy for a 2.8 diesel GU to get a 80 series that you are gonna put under some GQ diffs and then your gonna use the 80 series rear door to create an outdoor BBQ setting.


Did I get all that right :? :?

GU/GQ

Post by Not For Highway Use »

GU and GQ have different tappers for the control arms.

Make sure you swap the steer box and drag link over then no worries. I have done this previously
