morning lads.

bit of a question regarding sami axles.
if I were to put a set on my 410 how would the gearing be? and what do I have to modify to make em fit?

I have something in the pipeline and may be able to get a set ;)

Gearing will suck if you still have a 970cc, would be a bit better with 413 3.9:1 diffs but ideally with the larger tyres you'll want to get two front 4.6:1 vitara diffs to fit the r&p intot he samurai diffs

I'm pretty sure you need to move the position of the spring perches as the springs are in a different position.
