Whats the diff you are using Nick? Im wanting to convert my 120y to an LSD of some sort but not wanting to got to the extent of 4 link and coil overs as I only want it there for two wheel spinning when required. Im VERY jealous btw.

Its an alloy H190 I haven't sorted out an LSD for it yet, I picked on this Housing
1: Cause its super Light
2: Cause it was Free/swapped Chris some bike carbs for it

I'll sort an LSD one way or another.

Option two was going to be a toyota F series. The size down from Hilux.
Same size as H190 just a little heavier and altezza LSD's fit them.

so now I need to do a bump stop which i'll probably do by means of a crossmember between the new chassis rails acting on the diff head, then its panhard mount time. Just waiting on some more rod ends to turn up from the states.
