So theres a fair chance that this has all been discussed before, but it cant hurt to ask as I couldn't find all that much..

So anyhow, I've had a 1uzfe motor sitting around for quite some time now, bolted to an r154 gearbox, and recently I managed to pick up a ae71 rolling shell super cheap and decided amongst my two other builds, "Hey why not build a budget missile".. So I picked up a mounting kit and have sourced most of everything else needed to sort the build out and get it done, however I'm stumped on the following..


A mate is wrecking his crown and has offered to throw me his F series diff and front hubs, so my questions are as follows..

How hard would it be to mod the front hubs to fit the ke70 setup?

I know I could just go about doing a s13 setup with 5 stud hubs, however the ke70's with s13 setups that ive driven in the past aren't all that special, and you cant really go wrong with XT130 Lca's, ae86 power steering knuckles and lock spacers..

Then how difficult would it be to mod the crown independant setup in as well?

If this independent setup is too difficult to make happen, ill give it a miss and look into something else..

Other than a hilux rear diff and 5 stud setup, what other options are available?

Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!
