after looking into importing a surf (4Runner) diesel and thinking about a solid axle swap.... it came to me that the steering arms on the knuckles wouldnt accept the opposite side steering box, so how would you go about doing cross over on a RHD?

Also you could use the 1 ton TRE Setup, (inverted T setup) where the drag link connects Tie Rod Via the TRE.. You could use this setup and just put the TRE that normally goes on the right side on the left side..

Wouldnt work, the ackerman angle for steering correctly would be seriously out of whack (the steering arms arent straight - reversable) you would need a driver side arm that looked the opposite of the pass. side..... point to the left when looking down @ the knucke
EDIT- I understnad wht you meant...... duh!! I got it now. that would work- I thought you meant the arms, sorry
cool, yea its kinda strange trying to verbalize it, especialy when we usualy use terms like "drivers/Pass Side" lol
My arms only use the one hole on both sides, should work out!
