5 Lug conversion to SA22
5 Lug conversion to SA22
My sister has a 79 SA22, i was wondering if its possible to do a 5 lug swap with the FC 5 lug setup?? and if not is it possible to do a FC 4 lug or GSL-SE 4 lug swap?? her brakes are pretty bad and i have a couple FC's with good brakes and if they could be swapped i would just do that instead of buying new stuff.
Thanks

the gsl-se stuff is super easy to swap on. the fc stuff can be done in the front, ive seen pics and a how to, but its tough. the bearings are different sizes and you have to get custom races made up along with some other stuff too.
for the se stuff it all bolts on. the sa22c front hubs are different i think, so youd have to get the entire front suspension setup and bolt it on. for the rear just swap in a gsl-se rear along with its sweet lsd and 4.11 or 4.10's i think they are. then swap your master cyl to a disc brake one and youre good to go. youd then have the 4x114.3 easy to find wheels for pattern, lsd, better gears, and 4 wheel discs that are larger than the standard 4x110 ones and vented too.
tell us how it goes

Well I just swapped my rear axle with an SE axle. WEnt in really easy! No problems on this job.
Need to get some brake lines and I'm gettin ready to swap in the front suspension sometime today.
Also I recently obtained a nice Nitrous Kit for $100! So at some point I'll start to bottle feed my seven!
Definatle like the SE suspension so far! Screw those weak drum brakes!
