Hey mate i used a patrol master as the easy to get hold off and was a easy fit

[oh what a nissan feeling!]

Well, i think it would take a few hours to fix for someone with some skills.

 

Unless you fluke a granny model, there is not much chance of finding one in better condition,

 

it may look all sweet, but when you strip the paint down it will likely be exactly the same, if not worse.

 

Get your tipsnips, cut the rust out in nice square neat shapes, find an old panel for donar metal, and weld it in.

 

:P

[johnny t]

yeah ok thanks for ya reply ca18rolla thats a good reason to get it i just thought there might of been a difference or just a beta masta..

 

yeah not sure maybe its fixable if so ill have to find a donour sumwhere .. thanks for ya input johnnyt

wicked!!! that looks so frsh so clean!!!!

 

you gonna transfer the sr into it???

[johnny t]

yep thats the plan! swap everything ova in the next couple of weeks!! :lmao:

[oh what a nissan feeling!]

Wow, that looks real clean. nice find

 

here are those pics you wanted.

 

 

 

 

 

They use the front spring mount as a pivot point,

 

with another bolt that stops when it hits the top of the spring leaf,

 

this creates a four link type effect.

 

I am making new ones with larger triangles, and adjustable arm soon,

 

these are my old ones, they worked really well though.

 

They are made out of shortened commodore panhard rods.

 

My next set will be made out of fwd pintara rear arms, cos they have an adjustment already.

What are you going to do with those ones?

[oh what a nissan feeling!]

You can have them, probably a fair bit of waiting though,

 

I don't plan on bothering with small things like this until the car is going again.

[johnny t]
