not fsj but cj axles under chevy luv

[lil jeep mec]

My brother might be getting his old chevy luv back from his friends dad, they put cj5 or 7 axles under it, screwed up the steering, drive train and suspension, so he said if I drive and pick it up it can be half mine and we will split the costs... were going to do a 3 link front and rear, shocks no coils and maybe up to 35's at least with those little axles... any input on building it? Any pointers??? Ps it will never see the pavement... this will be practice for my j10

Shocks with no coils? Are you talking air shocks, like Fox or King? Bit on the expensive side for a practice rig

What style 3 link? And if it still has the 2-piece rear axles, I would not go over 31's, much less 35's.

Not set on anything lol maybe we will do coils I just don't like the look as much, front and rear are both out of a cj I don't know what the axles are till we get it home. I'm wanting to copy this, http://www.overrockoffroad.com/forum/vi ... =70&t=1279

What year is the luv??? I always liked the look of the 78-79 luv 4x4's. I personally would get a Isuzu diesel out of an 80's luv or Isuzu pup and have a 20-30 mpg wheeling rig

I'm not sure what year. I was already thinking about going diesel. I didn't know some came with them... that's cool

check out luvtruck.com, great site!!! I know a bit because before I got hooked on fsjs I was looking at getting a luv to fix up.

I pulled the 1.6L from a '73 Chevy Luv and put it in an '81 Isuzu P'up and made a Luv Puppy out of it!

Well its a no go, looks like ill just keep my money for the j10 lol
