those things look fun as hell to build and run with.

run the sami case or a divorced toyota case. ott industries makes a divorced adapter for top shift yota cases. i have a nissan 720 case, which there are no gearing options for. the case after, the nissan 720 case, has gearing options from calmini. especially if you are using live axles, just use a sami or toyota case. they are far more capable then people think. but there's a reason i'll be selling mine and i've been building a toyota for the last year... live axles that are a hell of a lot stronger and approx 60:1 gearing isn't low enough... i'm at 223:1 with the yota...

i have 4.11 gears, welded rear, lsd in front, built 1.8L and a second t-case with 31" tires.

if interested in more pics...

yes they have..but why? if your gonna sas a car, use toyota axles-stronger by a long shot, and more avail parts in the aftermarket.

but i have seen a sammi axled gl coupe, and a dozen or so toyota axled brats, gl wagons, ect
i even did a sas on a 86 gl wagon, ran 33s and a nissan case

I just have to ask it WHY. I love my subi and want to lift it for rally/snow driving purposes. But just buy truck or suv to begin with if you are going to SAS a car. That just all seems like a lot of work to go through. I don't quite understand it and just don't see the point I guess.

why. Any one can build a truck. lots of part options. but having to build your own parts and adaptors. Thats fun and rewarding. I just cant do things the eazy way.
