surf rear end

Post by Hales231271 »

Is the hilux surf chasis the same as the hilux chasis?

Looking at putting a coil rear end in the lux.
Can get a rear chasis cut and diff housing really cheap.
Use the bits off the chasis and mount to the lux.


cheers

different width axles depending what model hilux you have. different handbrake setup. different chassis shape, this will make the truck high. other than that it will be pretty straight forward.

Abit of extra width in the rear is good for stability ;)
