Hello,
Guys, I currently own a BJ40 and a HDJ80, and I want my 40 series with the engine/transimssion/transfer and suspension of my 80 series.
These are the jewels:
I have seen that this has been made:
Fj40/80 hybrid
I want to start the project but I want to get more information about it...
I am not really sure where to cut the frame to fit the 40 series body. I imagine that the cut has to be between the suspension rods? In that way the axles will stay in the same place.
Also... The back part of the frame has to be cut as well?
What if I pass the engine,transmission and transfer to the 40s frame then adapt the suspension supports, rods and axles? Won't be easier ?
I need some guidance on this please. Pics will be preferred.
Thanks,
Rob.
