We have a 75 series coiled and we used a 80 rear and a Gu front diff yes alot wider track although 33s with rubber flaring on the front and wheels sit in under the tray nicely . You will have to move the coil seats on the rear diff in about 50mm either side both diffs come as a 4.11 although nissan have a few diferent ratios to choose from a worth wile conversion good luck

rear coil seats an all mounts (except lower control arms) on diff and upper controls arms all gota move in 62mm each side to work properly, only issue with this is the tailshaft yoke is directly under the upper drivers side control arm mount.

front is 10mm narrower each side on the 75s so evrythin works pretty well, just gota cut a little off panhard mount and also screw the tie rod 10mm.

you have done it a bit different to me we used 3 link from a rangie and took the complete coil seat frame out of an 80 series chassis cut and shut it and was all put in while sitting on the original springs so that all the pinion angles and spring mounts lined up. last thing was to remove all traces of the leaf spring mounts and paint . all road legal and aproved.
