Been wondering if anyone has put 80 series diffs coil setup under a ln106. has anyone done this, can any one do this and get it engineered?

doing a 165 model right now.

Cheezy's done a few

Ask bubs, I know he put a Bundera front end into a IFS surf.

www.bubs4x4.net (I think)

He is in Brisbane, but search in members for some of his work, its pretty good.

In Qld you are only allowed 50mm track width increase, so to be legal you would be limited to narrow rims with positive offset, like split rims, if it were to be possible at all. Or else narrow the diffs down, killalux has done this.

Oh I just pop in every now & then ...... How are ya Webbie

i read thats 50mm extra track for that specific diff housing. so even if the diffs may give you an extra 150mm wheel track that maybe within the specs of the 80's diff housing.

I have done a rear and now about to do the front using std 80 series mounts, the rails are 20mm narrower on each side, so between the spring mounts on the diff and the chassis i dont think its going to worry it with the lift.. you will need to chop the inner guard also.

cheers mark.

how'd you get aroudn the diff centre on the 80 series axle been offset to the output tailshaft of the hilux which is usually in the centre ..correct me if im wrong ?

it says nothing about diffs, only vehicle track. So you've read it wrong.

same thing isnt it? the length of the diff plus tyre width gives you vehicle track

the vehicle track is specified in your manufacturers handbook.

Does it say in the handbook "Go measure your diff, then add 200mm, this is your track"

no it doesnt, incase your not sure.

When I looked into it it depended on the engineer, some said it couldnt be done as they were too wide and greater than a 50mm increase. Others said that the length came off the new housing, I wasnt prepared to take the gamble. Do some research talk to some engineers and see how you go.

Personally I would just coil the Lux diffs.

yer thats what i read, that it came off the new diffs cause its a complete suspension redesign...
