I am trying to get wheels and it is turning out to be a pain in the ***.

I was thinking of trying to swap in a gsl-se front suspension. how hard is it.

 

Its harder to find one than to do. ITS A DIRECT SWAP Easy

 

I am guessing i will need things like a gsl se brake cylinder.

 

nope.

 

I know I'll get the 4x114.3, will i get the 40 mm offset also.

The rear axle swap part seems simple but what are all the parts I need for the front.
Shocks/springs
spindle
control arms ect.

 

The front is just a whole strut/spindle/spring swap, you can use the control arms you already have.
you get the lug pattern AND offset.

 

thanx, sounds better than custom drilled and spacers.
I am going with tokico springs/shocks while Im at it.

Is there a artical somewhere which explains this swap.

 

Now I didnt know that, so just 2 bolts on the bottom and use my old good control arms? Got new ball joints in them. Thats freaking easy!

And sad thing is I just put new wheel bearings in there...
Right side rotor is new too

 

im doing the swap right now,
only have the back in so far,

im gonna post a huge article on it,

probably put it on my site since the ****** moderators dont like to put **** in the archives.

 

now i just got to find a se in a junk yard.

 

I know, RIGHT!!!!! Its BS!

 

Are any of the brake fittings different.

 

If you swapping a -SE susp into a SA. You will have different brake line pitch. If its a 81-85 FB , and swapping in a -SE, it will be a direct swap!
