But hey, it'll be strong.

I had to buy two cars! There are plenty around down here in Tassy. A dude came and took the two wrecks away yesterday.

Anyone done a disc brake conversion to the hilux diff? Any relatively easy conversions? I don't want to cut the end tubes off the diff, but don't mind making brackets for calipers.

Anyone suggest me a rotor/cali combination?]

Cheers Rob.

Edit-sorry for hijacking thread.

Where do u get the ae86 lsd centers from? What are they worth? Is the swap as simple as taking the t series center out and putting the lsd in or is more complicated than that?

Cheers...

I'll have to see if I can get me one of those MX13 diffs then

MA70 rear discs can be adapted to fit. Search.

u can use R31 disc and caliper,

and seecraft diffs they make a bracket up for you if you like,

but if your going to make the braket up yourself i wouldnt mind one for my future hilux upgrade,

Check out Rods TA22 thread and screaminrollas RA28 thread both have done this diff upgrade

Im putting together an RN2X diff for my RA23, MA70 torsen LSD centre with 4.11:1 ratio and MA70 rear disks. Going to cost me under a grand with new bearings and seals, but im doing the welding myself. Oh, and I will be getting a new single piece tailshaft made, so that parts not a worry for me.

Cheers, Owen
