Re: Safari SOA conversion
GREETINGS REENEN ,
About your spring over axle conversion , it's quite easily done . Just a FEW things to think about first . You need to : lengthen both propshafts ; both brake pipes ,
and diff breathers ; replace the shocks with longer shocks ; modify the cross member under the front propshaft (make sure it's strong after the modification) ; weld new spring pads on the axles (keeping
the castor angle the same on the front axle !) ; and to modify the steering linkages , so as NOT to have any BUMP STEER ! DON'T make a Z drop arm , they
BREAK after a while and you will still have very bad bump steer !! I have had my Safari raised like that for about 18 years with no problems . Your vehicle will be raised by about 200+ mm .
PM me with your number if you need photos or more info .
Now go 4x4ing for the fun of it ! BRETT .
