LN106 Cab Swap

Post by Weiner »

Hi guys,

Wondering if anyone has put a cab from a newer lux unto a LN106.

Might be able to buy a 2000 model extra cab for cheap, with 3RZ in it, and wouldn't mind the extra room inside for stuff.

Anyone done this and how did you go getting engineered?

Am I stupid for thinking this? Could even put the single cab back on the doner and sell it?

Not that fussed my damage, its not daily driven.

More room inside, and more room for a cage is what I am thinking.

Why not tranfer all the good stuff from the single and do a sas on the extracab imo its less work than a cab swap and probably easier to get engineered. Not sure on legalities down your way ?

Would be an idea, just thinking at the moment, it may not happen, but will see how much the old man wants for it.
