I've been thinking of making it a little longer, nothing like a few extra inches:DQuote:

I like the welding on the engine mounts:eek: And the very neat cut out job :eek: Must have been poked in after the 4BD1 was dropped in.
Did the chassis whistle at 80 kmh and over:D
I hear you on the number thing:D:angel:
Poked?.....more like hacked:eek:Quote:

Hey Matt, Just an idea I had years ago wile building a series hybrid on a stretched Rangie chassis... Lift the outriggers etc 2" and brace over the top . Lift the engine and gear box mounts, then run a double cardan joint on the front shaft. Then a front sals will clear the sump:cool:
If you get a 130 chassis you wouldn't bother as to much stuffing around:( The above idea will keep the suspension geometry very nice and can run long down travel but retain near stock ride height in effect.
I think a 130 chassis even at 1K would be cheaper than buggering around extending a 110 somehow.:)
