Oh, and I don't mean "seen it on the net" either, unless it's a step by step that I can go read. I know trailtough sell a kit, but i'm mainly interested if anyone here has done it.

Oh god!

That vitara video above looks pretty cool. Mines only a SWB, dunno if that'd affect anything.
I'd wanna go coils though if I did it.

Of course mate, i'm not fussed if you wanna know.
In a nut shell, it's be IFS sucks. And I wouldnt mind getting into comps and such down the line somewhere and i'd prefer it be in a zooky.
Intended purpose? Probably a weekend car that can run a bit bigger rubber then what I got.

Actually, id only seen the trailtough kit.

I didn't realise that dads bj73 is actually a bundera, so we have a whole spare set of axels/diffs in the shed.
