torxxx Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 I picked my brat up today. it drove with a wobble in the front drivers side tire, but after looking at it, the balancing weight was gone, so I changed tires and that fixed the problem. 135,000 miles on the ticker Anyways, the reason for this post is to get some ideas what to do with it. Heres what I have so far: 1. Ozified 4/3 lift 2. Yota rims with 27 inch or so rubber 3. 5 speed D/R EA82 tranny 4. possibly XT6 suspension (will this raise the back up at all?) How high do I have to lift it to get a nissan t-case under the car? I'm also looking for a source for the chrome trim along the bed. I'm gonna try to compete with Northguy for the nicest Brat in Alaska Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northguy Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 I think Moosens has some bed trim, but he's missing the tailgate trim piece. I'll look for one if you need one. Why a 4/3 kit instead of a straight 3" kit? The back of a Brat can be raised a bit by adjusting the torsion bar in the back. If you need any parts, let me know. I'll see what I've got.

torxxx Posted November 29, 2004 Author Share Posted November 29, 2004 Cool thanks Matt soon as I get it registered, it will be coming down to anchorage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jibs Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 Sounds good. I believe you need a MINIMUM of 6" to get a transfer case underneath a brat, and 8" is even better. Other than that you're gonna have a sweet lookin brat. Congratulations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northguy Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 If you get an Ozzified lift, bring it down and I'll help you put it in. I've got all the tools and a heated garage. And if you pull off the 5spd transfer, let me know and I'll employ you to do the swap on mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torxxx Posted November 30, 2004 Author Share Posted November 30, 2004 sounds like a good plan. I took it out today and went to the motocross track. took it through 4 to 5 foot whoops no problem. I love the approach angles on these cars.. awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
