Awesome, and you've gained an instant front end lift. Amazing how light the rover V8 is compared to the diesel lump.

Ian 619 is enquiring about some exhaust manifolds from his neighbour.

[surfenstein]

yea,i reckon ive saved somewhere in the region of a couple of hundred kilos.that aside from the body lift as well,so me thinks a set of uprated rear springs is in order.

[BUSHWHACKER]

Ooh, ooh, get some Landcruiser springs, and I can supply the panhard rod drop bracket kit!

Did you find the charge light wire from the alternator?

[surfenstein]

ive been reading the thread about the springs with great interest.is it a difficult job to do.as for the alternator wire i had forgotten about that.best i go have a look.

[BUSHWHACKER]

If you install a V8 into a Surf, you could fit the rear springs with your eyes closed!

[surfenstein]

Yep. The Landcruiser springs are firm enough not to notice the rollbar missing.
