bishbosh Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Will bolt straight on except you will need a shorter prop and probably have to change the spring seats as the axle was probably originally on a 110. The drum brakes will want replacing with discs too - you can get parts pretty cheaply so the wise ones on here say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nakatanenga Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 ...but the drum brake axles are NOT so easy to convert to discs! The rest of the swap is pretty straight as described above Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
