hilux suspension PLEASE DECIDE FOR ME

Post by chunderlicious »

so i got a set of GQ diffs and im fitting them to azas old lux. i have nearly finished rebuilding the front one and am starting to question what i want.

i have set it up (not the best) to use the radius arms on the front as i would like to be road regoed, as some will know the angles this creates on the arms isnt good. i wonder if anyone has any info regarding changing them to leaf and if its worth it. i also have the rear set up for A frame on a 60 series diff and have some gear here for converting the front to 60 aswell. would it be easier making it 60 diff and selling the GQ? im kinda over all the shit ive had to do to use the front diff, all the mounts have been custom made and they still need more work to be right and to my satisfaction.

i dont have an engine in it (looking at RB30 Turbo or 253 atm) and will run a landcruiser or patrol gearbox. so driveshaft drop doesnt bother me. steering has all been redone too so it runs an ifs box and has alot more strength than when aza had it and it still has the dropped front crossmember. i have rear leaves sitting here aswell.

modplater and QLD transport said it will be legal with the radius arm setup as it is factory (used standard mounts)

i am really undecided at what i want to do. i really cant decide what i want so id like everyone else to decide for me please. im really open to suggestions. i like flex, highspeed handling for offroad racing, stability, comfort, dont care about legal as itll see road twice a year. please help me.
