Are those the HD coils (part # 928)?

This 4-link rear set-up could be pretty badass, albeit expensive and time-consuming. Tyler, keep us posted on those links!

Depends on what you end up doing. AC or OME coils will be stiffer than OEM and aftermarket shocks and struts will have improved response over OEM. So you can expect a way more comfortable ride with more of a 'truck feel'. Keep in mind beefier meats will further cushion the ride, too. The difference between stock and 2" lifted has been nothing but great based on my experiences.

I'd say for lift kits, piss on AC... Go OME for coils, KYB for struts and Bilstein for rear shocks, all of which can purchased elsewhere for less! Camber bolt kits are readily available at most local autmotive shops. On a separate note, I purchased my Warn hubs and HD CV axles through AC and no problems with either order whatsoever. In fact, Napa took 6 weeks to order in Warn hubs; AC had 'em at my door in 4 business days. Perhaps it depends on what is ordered...

Indeed, it is a super nice R50. Those wheels are nice but impossible to find. The lift is a subframe drop which is custom. I'd rather the engine 'cause it's turbo diesel.

I'd like to see the douchenozzle attempt to wheel his lifted car... Methinks those wheels won't stand a chance.

Epic Fail. Who lifts a car anyway?! The person(s) responsible for this deserve this:

LOL, indeed. Both sets of wheels I've had on my R50 so far have been black so I'll stick to what's good.

Yikes, you're not kidding... In my *limited* experience with tires, I'd always go brand new. But for ~$180, what the hey...

Good find! Not just that one link, the whole tech site is pretty informative! http://www.datsuns.com/Tech/tech_dept.htm

So I've made a decision on wheels, post-SFD install with 33s or 35s. http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.a...mp;autoview=sku The other wheels that had caught my eye are too hard to find. These are badass, anyway!

Any luck finding that info?

And for those macho guys down under, there's the BRO. Or is it manzier?

Could these links be used to fab up a custom 4-link rear-end?

Exactly. Worst case scenario, 1" steel spacers.

Bronco coils, eh? Noice! Are there any other options? I'm not too keen on rear coil spacers either. BTW, good to see you, Boston!

Who wouldn't recommed a 32x11.5 on a 15x10? Perhaps on a R50 it wouldn't be very good unless you were rocking a subframe drop. But a 15x8 would be sufficient for a 32x11.5 wheel. As to the census regarding backspacing, I think the debate is still ongoing as to what's best. I've been told a 15x10 wheel with 4" BS should be fine for 33" or 35" flot. tires but I'm still having my doubts.

Oooh, a 4-link rear... I'd like one of those. But a custom, beefed up 5-link will do, too.

Keep in mind, my truck currently rolls on 32s (265/75R16) with a 16x8 wheel (pretty sure the BS is 3.75"). My reference to 33s, 35s and 15x10 wheels pertains only to options post subframe drop. With 2" coils, there's no way 35s are remotely possible.

I use Castrol Lithium grease in my hubs. So far, so good.

AC (4x4parts.com) claims a maximum BS of 3.75" will only work with the 2" lift coils installed but that's definitely not the case.

PM sent.

You're running 17x9 wheels right? And 4.5" BS works? Nice! Hopefully, that means 15x10 with 4" BS should work fine to run 33s, maybe even 35s.

Depends on your preferences, really. If you want a solid OEM replacement, get the 5100s. If you want something with more travel and better performance, try the 7100s.

No worries, it's a sweet-looking WD21! Be sure to post in Member's Rides section.
