someone correct me if im wrong but..

A ca18 with dr30 stumpy gbx will fit a 1200 without having to mod fire wall or tunnel,
so I would bet in a b310 it would be an even easier fit.

Re: Joels b122 sunny truck

Yeah i looked at doing this, I got them reset at belamy and east. We found the spring would foul on the front eye mount point if the spring was flipped, There was the option of getting a new leaf made up at the time with just the rear eye reversed but the cost out weighed the minimal gain. meh.
