AE71 wagon. leafsprings FTL

[LordNafe]

Hey dudes,
Is it difficult to convert the ae71 wagons with leaf springs at the back to a coil spring instead? Got a mate lookng at buying one, but he's not too keen on the leafies!
Thanks dudes

why not keen on the leaf springs? whats wrong with them?

[LordNafe]

They are a bit sloppy when sliding. ANd give bad tank slapping!
I told him not too worry, it's not his drift car anyway :s

i was kind of thinking about this too. i wonder if the sprinter/sedan trailing arms would pretty much bolt in, the mounts look like a similar distance from the diff. maybe ill look into it, but for the money i could probly get a decent leaf setup.
anyone have any experience?

i have seen it done on a datsun for reduced lateral movment
