flat out Posted October 6, 2012 Report Posted October 6, 2012 Hello guys. I have a quick question, due to my location we don't have a hell of a lot of parts cars to chose from, but the stuff we do have is usually free, Now I have access to many st and rt142 coronas, some with a disk rear end and some without. I'm wanting to run the disks to kind of match my 4 pot hilux calipers, Autho simply bolting disks onto the standard borgy is hardly worth it, That's where I want to use the corona gear, every thing is slightly bigger and a track increase that I'm happy with, plus I have access to a heap of cars for spare axles and centers, That comes to the question, how far off are the mounts? I know that you can get an RA40 rear end to fit but it puts pressure on bushes ect, I am hand enough to make my own swaybar and panhard mounts if needed, Eventually I will go with a hilux rear end, for now this works as a free upgrade, with more spares than I will possibly need. Any help would be much appreciated Casey Quote
Jono.C Posted October 7, 2012 Report Posted October 7, 2012 Uh, isn't rt142 IRS? St141 is live axle Quote
flat out Posted October 7, 2012 Author Report Posted October 7, 2012 Afaik the avante model rt142 are IRS, everything else is live axle, some with disks some without, I'm talking about a csx? St141 or st142 whichever it is with the disk brake borg warner Quote
19914afc Posted October 7, 2012 Report Posted October 7, 2012 I would just do the hilux diff straight up, you can get supra rear brakes to bolt on. Quote
flat out Posted October 8, 2012 Author Report Posted October 8, 2012 Either way I go I still need to work out if the trailing arm mounts are the same as I would build a jig and use corona mounts on the hilux diff so I have my. Corolla one to accurately measure off, and a hilux diff seems a little silly with a 4ac just yet Might have to bite the bullet and have a go at throwing it in Quote
7shades Posted October 9, 2012 Report Posted October 9, 2012 Nope, they aren't. And the spring perches are in the wrong place. And the wrong size. And the panhard mount is different. Quote
snot35 Posted October 9, 2012 Report Posted October 9, 2012 So do the borg warner discs in st14x Corona's bolt onto a KE70 borg warner? Quote
