Other than the obvious like front cross member, axle etc is there any body mods ie drive tunnel etc that need modifying?! Most of the running gear wont be standard cossie anyway

Basically looking at a new project for later on in the year and i'm either gonna have a flint grey or black shell and dont wanna have to do a colour change on a cossie shell, but obvioulsy black RWD are rare so if i go black will prob have to be a 4x4 one!!

 

it's been covered on here before mate, do a search.

tunnel is different. 2wd t5 and crossmember will not bolt to tunnel. see pic below



bolt a length of 50mm box section to the front mount running backwards at a slight angle and then it's sorted.

apart from that, no probs.

 

Cheers mate, wont be a T5 box thats being fitted thou So poss gonna need a fair bit of custom work anyway

 

Posted in the previous topic on this.

Ibought a 4x4 shell that had been modied to take a 2wd box,the post explains what this was etc......

Cheers, as said thou it aint a cossie box that'll be goin in, will be down the same route as some others on here, ie the jap influence Its already in a LHD cossie shell but wanna reshell it so its RHD and sounds easier to re-shell rather than fit a RHD bulkhead unless im gonna need 2 do alot of tunnel mods to get the box to fit
