S13 suspension in jzx81 or similar??

[d1 mule]

has anyone actually done this?? im just had a look at some cef (same as S13) suspension and the only thing could seethat could cause problems is the angel of the caster arm. but ya could prob just re drill to suit toyota arms anyways. bearing in mide i havnt got the x81 yet (comes next wed) just comparing to ae85 and gz10

i want to do something like this as jzx81 stuff is super expensive and not seperate height and pre-load any advice welcome.

problem is the fronts have the spindles built in.

care to elaborate?? spindles?
im thinking, use complete CEFIRO/LAUREL/S13 front suspension form the bottom arm with the hub & breaks, steering knuckle thing etc.

its just a completly different set up.

S13


I guess you'd have to change everything over to s13

yeah lol i no that, i mean eveything basically get a cef with adjustables un bolt the top hat, LCA (bottom arm thing) tie rod, brake line, then see how it all fits in the X81. obviously things wont go straight in but surely with a bit of tinkering it could work........maybe lol

If you haven't checked it out already there is some nice eye candy on http://www.jzx81.net/

Would be interested to see how you go with your experimentation

hey bro, i wouldnt go fukn round ith complete s13 gear, mod the coilovers to fit, you made a threaded sleve up to weld onto the hub arrangement, thats what im doing for my z10( similar), the rears will be close to fitting me thinks. just new bottom bush and re drll top out.
