Ive been working on eliminating the torsion bar on the pathy IFS. My design will only work for a trailmaster lifted Nissan.

Saw that. More pics. Are the A-arms running parallel with each other and with the halfshaft and tierod? You'll need that for correct geometry. Very cool concept though and might be a good alternative to a SAS to get some altitude out of IFS without whacky angles.

All of the geometry is still stock, with the exception of the shock. Now we are down to the final touches of spring rates and all of that.

Thats pretty cool. Can you still get your oil filter out with the tower in the way?

Crap, you know what, I bet that oil-filter will be a big PITA if it even will come out. I may be looking for a re-location kit real soon. Does anyone remember what ford kits fit the Nissan so I can get one from advanced? seems like the threads were the same if I remember right.

Oil filters are over rated anyway. Who needs em right? Big Grin
Sorry just had to, my oil filter just barely makes it out after the sas, the shock towers are in the way.

Mine is a kit for a ford 302. I had to add 45deg fittings to clear the frame rail. I used pipe fittings, but if I had to do it again Id use JIC (flare) fittings.
