Default 4x4 Rear Suspension on 2wd Cossie??

Hi Guys,

Just a quick question. I am building up a 3 door cossie (2wd). Back end wise I have a 4x4 saff cos rear beam and other bits lying around that are like new. It looks an easy job to convert this beam to accept a 7.5 diff, just the one bolt hole carrier needs widening where the diff is bigger, all other 5 bolt holes line up.I have already got 2wd diff and shafts. Questions are;

1, is this ok to use, has anyone had problems using this set up?
2, I presume the 4x4 wishbones are the same and okay use?

Many thanks, Ben.

Will all go straight on, easier to shave 1/4" off each side of diff long bolt mounting ?
