Can anyone put me in touch with any 4wd engineering places that have delt with this modification.Im trying to find out mainly about tailshaft angles,pinion angles and uni joint requirments. I have done a mock set up in car and have a tailshaft angle of approx 20 deg on the rear and will be somewhere in the same vicinity on the front, need to know all the requirments involved with this set up.I live in adelaide but any state with info will help.

mate did you roll your diffs forward???

i am not sure on who to talk to, but surely overkill, or one of the other big mod type shops.

mate QLD shops wont be as much help as SPOA is illegal up there.

what about Eureka in Vic they sell heaps of 40 bits.
bought mine already spoa so im not much help mate.

My 45 was sprung over when I got it but I have had a couple of issues with the front tail shaft popping out.

This is because the knuckles have not been cut and welded so the pinion angle as all wrong. Make sure you get this done and done properly or you WILL have heaps of issues with it !!

Don't know anyone in your neck of the woods but if you want some people to call then let me know

Have Fun
