UNDERSTEER is when you hit the wall with the front of the car. OVERSTEER is when you hit the wall with the rear. HORSEPOWER is how fast you hit the wall. TORQUE is how far you take the wall with you.

    The early 80's axles as mentioned are wider ( 2" ) and require the saddles to be moved. With the guard lips rolled you can still get 205/13 inside the bodywork using standard offset mags. Later hilux diffs have the centre offset and arent suitable unless modifying.
