Gidday,
over here in Christchurch NZ, expat from QLD. Some real great 4wdriving over here in the south island. Have a 94 V6 Pathfinder widebody with two inch body and OME suspension lifts, wheel arch panel work, 33x10.5x15 BFG MT's, LSD, snorkel etc etc. Thinking of doing SAS as I am smashing my steering up and nothing aligns in the front end anymore. Moded pathys are rare here and I will be the first in NZ to do so I think. Some are waiting for me to do so that they can do it themselves.
How should I go. Some here are saying I should put a hilux front end in, do I go the nth american, or do I go nissan safari. All thoughts greatly appreciated. Anyone who has gone nissan, I would love to here what they how they did it.

MQ Patrol would be my recommendation. Failing that swapping to Hilux front and rear would probably be your next best option.

The yanks have no choice as solid axle Nissans stopped in 1980 and hey convert alot of Pathfinders/ Navara's (Hardbodies) to SAS.
