    Time for update.

    The bus is now supporting S13 rear coilovers, hence, no more leaf springs. Basically I have S13 coilovers mounted to a T series diff, then a large box in the back of the car that the coilovers mount to. That being said, its also now has 4-link and a panhard rod.

    Still playing with a few issues, but so far its proving itself to be an improvement. Especially in the "lateral movement department".

    While I was at it, I made a weld in half cage.

    Pics soon.

    Yeah, its a 4AGE, it just sounds different because I had to make my own rear half of the exhaust. Sound like shit at the moment.

    Soon Marvis, soon. My girlfriend is away at the moment with her camera and I dont have access to any other camera's really, and my phone wont connect to the computer. She gets back sunday.

    Ok, so this has all been in for about two months now and seems to be proving itself.

    I have had a few minor problems but now, everything seems to be working quite well so now all it needs is some fine tuning (should have done ages ago but been to lazy).

    So low and behold, here is my 4 link rear end panno with S13 coilovers to boot.

    First step was welding mounts onto the diff for the coilovers to mount to.

    Second step was cut shit, lots of it until I got this:


    Then some more, until it was the same on the other side.


    I then made a box, mounted to the rails (no, this is no sub-box):


    More mounts on the diff needed to be made, Panhard was moved and re attached, and upper trailing arm mounts were made, made a panhard too:


    For lower trailing arm mounts I used the old leaf plates with U-bolts, then used L section (on each side, not just one like pictured) to mount the lower control arms to the diff:


    Made plenty of bracing on my "sub box":


    Adjustable lower control arms can be found in your much more modern FWD corolla as lateral bars, haha:


    Top trailing arms mounted to body inside the car:


    Thses are all the photos I have for now, but the car now has a welded in half cage made from the ladder rack that was once in a mates Hilux. The cage braces the box, as well as the top trailing arm mounts.

    Panhard and top trailing arms are all modifyed Corona panhard rods, bottom trailing arms are adjustable lateral arms off a AE101?

    The only real problems I have struck are the top trailing arm body mounts ripping off the floor, however not that my cage braces them, they seem to be holding.

    The box has been covered in light sheet metal for obvious reasons (street car, Holes in floor, you do the math) and floor cut out covered with the old interior out of my daily, haha.

    So yeah, have a look, get confused, laugh at me ask some questions and most of all, enjoy.

    Couldn't you just weld a rear tower casing for the rear shocks to existing wheel arch similiar to what you would find in the sedans? thats what Ueo did to his wagon. Never the less gd effort mate hope turns out alright.
