Can someone tell me the exact modifications required and what year axles the used?

One thing I wanted to ask, that I missed somewhere.. is the "Hagen" widening needed for the mod? or is that optional?   I will go search and read some more..  if I did the widening, would likely have to go back to a bigger offset, I am way out there as it is..

Yeah you have to do the widening mod to use the Toy stuff...

Ok FNG - (brief description with no measurements) 1st you have to take a driverside axle and cut off the flange. Next take a passenger side cv and cut off the stub end. Weld the stub to the flange. This is your passenger side inner axle.Next remove strut, coil spring and spindle. Remove the A-arm. Take a pair of pliers and flatten out the lip near the rear bolt hole. Measure 1/2 the distance from the original hole to the edge of the mount. Drill a new bolt hole thru the front side of the mount. Take your A-arm and reinstall the front bolt. Line up the rear of the A-arm and drill thru the backside of the mount. Weld a washer on the outside of your new bolt holes. When you get the adapters from Stan it will have very good instructions on how to modify your spindle, its pretty easy!!

Sorry if I forgot anything..   Quaddawg if you get the stuff I can come over and  help you out with it.. FNG you can call me |removethispart|@ 812-744-5036 if you have any problems.

Thanks,i was just wondering if the widening was needed.Do you still use the suzuki lockout hubs or toy hubs? Thanks again Mitch

Youll need the Toy locking hubs because of the spline count.  I think the cvs are from 89-94 Toy truck or 4runner. Stan can answer that for sure.

hey stan, how much total for your kit and for me to ship out BOTH the drivers and pass. side axles/cvs for you to just weld on your adapters?? let me know if this can be done. thanks

I will tell Stan about your post, he hast been online much. Its just a few days till we leave for Moab and its crunch time The kit is $300 +shipping I belive. You supply Toy CVs and lockouts

So, is Stan's adapter, the Hagen widening mod (http://www.zukiworld.com/month_120102/feature_hagan_frontendmod.htm), Toy mini-truck CV & toy hub the only way to get Toy CV up front? What about using a Toy front Anvil?

Still very confused on how all this is supposed to go together.

To avoid the Hagen widening thing we are going to use Nissan CV's - 10mm shorter than a stock Kick set up. Once you factor in the adaptor plate then it should fit no problem. Will do a post when it is all done with complete details.

Stans set up - Toy Cv's. Stans axle adaptor kit, bush and lockout adaptor. You need to widen the track ( move the lower ball joint out as per Hagens instructions ( look in the archive threads ). You also need to do a cut and plate mod to the right hand side axle ( also covered in Hagens archive threads ). Its all there, you just gotta have a look.

Are you running the Calmini lift? This leaves the CV shafts further extended than the stock setup. If the Nissan shafts are shorter then you could run out of travel.

Its all there, you just gotta have a look.

So, the link in my post (three up from this one) isn't the Hagen writeup? Is the Toy or Nissan CV stronger. The widening mod has other benefits, so I don't mind doing it. I just want to make sure I follow the proper procedure.

Yes running Calmini lift - the adaptors will be engineered to compensate for length. The plan is to cater for stock arm lifts as well - spacer thickness is the key.

BTW: The Nissan stub axle measures up EXACTLY the same as a stock Kick stub diameter
