Truck is a 93 rodeo space cab.
Im about to sas the rodeo but Im unsure on the steering box? Will the standard box give enough steering lock? Can I get away with just moving the standard one forward or do I need a hilux ifs box?
Reason I ask is I remember Matt Passanis rodeo at nissan trials years ago and it had hardly any steering lock.
Suspension setup will be droped front crossmomber rear lux springs up front and ifs rears.

Yeah standard box and arm doesn't give full lock, and too far back anyway gives lots of bump steer.

Thanks mate thats the info I was chasing. :armsup:
So did you end up using a Hilux IFS box?
If so how did it bolt up to the rodeo steering shaft?

I was going to go with a 60 series box with the arm facing forward I even bought one (probably would have fitted), but the plans changed and I have a patrol chassis now....

The patrol box fits the Isuzu spline, I think Isuzu and Nissan use the same brand auxiliaries, Zexel/Hitachi.
