some progress on er

 

8" lift all done up front

took the sawzall to the front and rear,

decided to stick with the toyota rearend

ditched the 720 Nissan case , got another plan,

gas tanks gone should have good approach and deparcher angles:grin:

 

lookin at diff ratio options, if I use my 3.7 LSD up front , with the 410 toy rear I could run 30 in tires on the front with 33s on the rear,

 

a Air locker in the rear would be nice:eek:

 

this thing should be pretty light when In done, will leave the red paint and maybe add some "Invassion stars" on the doors

 

like this hood one

is that a toy axle? if so, your going to have issues with overheating if you run it upside down like that. the third members do not have adequate cooling vallys if run upside down. of course these issues will only be present at speeds of 35 or faster.

 

also , alot of guys drybox them- fill the whole diff with grease. or you could try to overfill it with oil....

 

just an obsevation- good luck
