Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hey guys me again.

Yes my mate and I are going to build it.
And yes I know alot of people dont like this conversion but
I DONT CARE WE WANT TO DO IT AND ITS OUR CHOICE!

Ok here is they layout so far.

We have:
* 1996 Coil Sprung Suzuki Sierra wreck.
* VN Commodore 3.8L V6 and Turbo 700 Auto
* 1983 Hilux Axels and Diffs

Plan
* Plate the rail with 5mm steel and replace the front cross members to strengthen it for the V6.
* Mount the engine right on the fire wall cut out the tunnel to suit the larger gear box.
* Move the front diff forward 5-8" to balance the car out.
* The suspension that will be mounted will only raise the car @40mm above normal but the wheel arches will be cut out and moved higher up to allow for larger tyres.
* It will be a 3 link suspension up front and 5 link rear.

What we don’t have:
* Transfer case, possible setups:
- T700 auto - Marks adaptor - Hilux t/case
- T700 auto - Independent mounted early model Mitsubishi Pajero t/case
- Bell housing from a 94 era 3.2 auto rodeo - Asian Warner auto - Hilux t/case

What are people's suggestions for the transfer case setup? Other possibe setups?

if you call this over power have a look at this zook

Do a build thread in the members area. Let's see how this comes together.

The marks gear is top quality. It would save a HEAP of stuffing around.

Look at lengthening your wheelbase too for a more stable vehicle.

why not run an lt230 rover case, incorporates front and rear digs aswell, 1st low in the transfer and t700 are an ideal match if ya want crawl, and adaptors are cheap.

bazooked would you know where i would be able to get an adaptor for a lt230 transfer case?

Ruff , or stange rover May be able to help with the lt230 adapter but it is tight with the front shaft output.



Mq mk wagons had a divorsed case that is pretty robust,

Do the marks and hilux combo, it will match up with your diffs. Just finished this combo in a vitara. I will tell you how it goes after Willowglen

cool as thats the go
