    84 318 suspension swap questions

    I have a 84 with drums and the small diameter sutra. I have a set of disc brakes trialing arms with axles, along with the bigger front struts.

    my question is, are these axles plug and play with my smaller diff? Or should I go ahead and swap a new diff in now?

    yeah they should directly bolt up. the major difference is the abs rings that came on the later axles

    No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.

      Could I remove the rings without a second thought?

        they shouldn't interfere.
