body mounts on NT vs WT sierra

Post by stumped »

yeah, i searched, both on body mounts and body swap, got bored after getting to the 5th page of both with no results :roll:

does anyone know if the bodymounts of the NT vs WT zooks are different? can i put the body of an older NT zook onto my WT zook chassis?

i guess while i'm asking, does anyone know if the NSW laws say ya can't put an older body on a chassis, like u can't put an older engine into a vehicle?

cheers :armsup:

a 1.0 litre body won't just bolt on to a 1.3, but the rest I have no idea.
Mind you, I haven't tried it, but was told by somebody who did do it, and mounts needed to be made/modded.
can't even remember who, it was a while ago. :oops:

NT and WT are the same. 1 litre chassis and mounts are in slightly different locations across the centre mounts ( this is for the SWB)

If the body you ar ebuying is a NT 1.3, or WT 1.3 you should be fine.

My NT had the same bushes so shouldn't be a problem.

U talking about the body bolt blocks or the body spacer blocks.

I have a NT and a WT. I know for sure the WT has the conical rubber blocks in between the bolts bolting the body in and also has the square blocks in between the body where the no bolts. Let me know if u need pics as i have a bare WT chassis at home.

Btw, as zooks only have the one body number, u could swap the body ova and then swap the vin plates and then they would not know. If the same colour even better but if not then just say you have repainted it.

Disregard this if u are going from a softtop to a hardtop.

cheers
