You would of thought a complete conversion with all the components delivered in one shot would of been the order of the day , but i read problems with availability of shocks, shafts and items that are incorrectly machined and additional items like of centre bushing needed and even those incorrectly machined.. GGGRRR its so ingratiating for me sitting on the sideline.. i realy feel for you guys.
Im at the stage of wanting to lift my D40 suspension preferably for more travel ,3" but now getting greedy
originally wanted to do a bolt on conversion as im still under warranty lol. but thought of Solid Axle Swap a couple of years down the line using ether Patrol or looking at Unimog portal axles.
Once i hurd of the Titan swap i thaught it sounded a good intermediate solution , without having to get the angle grinder out.
Looking on fleabay there are reasonably priced Titan LCA`s and complete drive shafts with UJ`s (Although from what i gather the Titan UJ`s are not compatable to Navara ????) im assuming the shafts have the same splines, companies selling the complete shaft and UJs wont supply just the shaft.. I was looking at modified UCAs (prefrably rosejointed and with drop rather than a solid bush , More difficult to align but the ajustment is there .
I tried a couple of motor factors in uk for Titan LCAs and shafts but none i contacted list them.
So my local motor factor`s supplier of shafts can custom make a shafts for me .
Krankybul`s LINK TO dIRT KINGS own uca and lca `s look nice and tasty with all the issues coverd..
But then its shocks im looking at wanting as much travel as possible at reasonable cost , but would consider a coil over and making a top mount conversion to 3 bolt from loop .or do i just cut the strut turret out and go full coil overs with shock loop??.... Any advice/links please?
I have good machine shop access and could fab most of the components .
This week I MUST DECIDE what road to take ,trouble is i want it Quick . GGGRRR.
