Yer suspension will still fit! i always thought the 105series was a 80 chassis with the 100series body!

suspension is all exactly the same.

the chassis is far from the same though.

if you put one ontop of the other, there are alot of differences. total remake, but suspension parts were all the same.

i have been told that patrol coils will fit into my 100 but it wont be the same amount of lift..

my mate has a set of 6" patrol coils so i should get around 4-5"

does this sound correct??

I thought the C sections themselves were same or similar, but all body mounts were changed heaps....

suspension components definitely interchange, im running 100 series suspension in my 80
