Samuria / Santana

The place to socialise, and relax, if it doesn't fit into anything below it fits here, so tell us that joke, or share that story of your last off-road escapade, but remember new comers the virtual drinks are on you!

Pretty much a straight swap. Samurai front end has the bigger arches though and you can't swap them as the wings have different edges to them.

But you can drill out the spot welds to remove the arch mounts and then spot weld the 410 arch mounts back on, the 410 side repeaters fit where the samurai badges go but you will then have the holes where the samurai repeaters go.
