the ifs rear diffs are wider so you will need to run wheel spacers.

it would probably cheaper to sell the 100 and buy a 105, then put a v8 into that

I think the Slee one looks pimp!

The front axle in it has Toyota componenets right? (I read about it ages ago and forgot all about it)

You need different sump and oil pick up, and a 6" lift for the diff to clear, with bump spacers.

Christo Slee had the front housing made to suit a rear diff in the front, as part of the conversion.

His estimate to have it done was $20,000 U.S.

Those silver front suspension components look very familiar
