Hope you guys enjoy, if you have any questions uses the comments, thanks.

I would be inclined to run some big, single packing washer on each side of the radius arm bushes to allow spacing. Having the brackets so close to arms will be an issue when you start getting flexitime and dynamic roll.
Thanks for the info ill have to ask matt as he'd know more about this than I would.
Awesome series man keep it up 🤙
Thanks mate, Ill do my best 🤙
Keep it up bro well done 👍
Thanks mate!
i remember asking matt if he could send me a kit few years back now when the chassis swaps started, good to see its finally in swing! I like my nav but the ride is so bad im in agony after 45min so shes pretty much sat in the backyard for the last couple of years. hopefully a sas will correct that.
Yeah the torsion bar and leaf definitely has its limits with lift and comfort. I can’t wait to have full adjustment of everything. The kits shouldn’t be too far off being produced, he just has a few tweaks left.
Matt who? Where are we talking about?
@@timothyhoppen Matt is the fabricator who made this kit, his fab shop is Crawl Customs 👍🏻
following closely! I REALLY appreciate you being specific with information. I'm planning to do the same with 05 zd d22.
Have you gone down the path of certification? if so what was involved?
Awesome to hear that mate love the feedback. I got in contact with an engineer we use often at work who is familiar with our quality of work. He said he would be happy to cert it as long as its within legal lift and tyres.
If you're wanting to do this get in contact with engineers before you start and find exactly what you need to do for them to be satisfied. In the end its their name on the line once its mod plated so they have the final say.
@@ReubsModifications thanks for getting back to me. great advice. which state do you live in?
@@thewitabike no worries mate 👍🏻I’m from Qld how about yourself?
Good stuff man, not too many sas'd d22s getting around. I would love to sas mine but I don't trust my welds lol
Thanks mate, it’s all about practice, there’s plenty of short courses available. It’ll save you over $10k if you can do it yourself. You’ll also learn new skills and get tools to keep 👍🏻
In the US that's what you do with them, the second gens they Nissan Titan swap them, suspension etc.
@@Teekay617 We don't have many Titans over here so there parts aren't really accessible. What is the suspension set up for them?
@@ReubsModifications pretty sure it's the D40 is that The Navara second gen. They share everything the same expect the motor cause you have Diesel options. Oh the Titan has basically the Nissan Amanda IFS, big SUV, coil over suspension, and the Vk56 V8 it all fits the D40.
Hey mate in the process of lining up parts for myself to do this job. So glad you're making a video series on it! I was wondering why you chose the 2.0 shocks over 2.5s?
That’s awesome mate, I’m not an expert on suspension components so I left it to Matt. I told him what I wanted to do with the car and he recommended the size I should go for. He explained that because I wanted to fit longer coilovers the 2.0 would be easier to fit 👍🏻
@@ReubsModifications nah sweet that’s fair enough. I’m hoping I can fit the 2.5s in so that it’s more of a comp truck style comfort haha
Hey mate where can I get the kit from I wouldn’t mind doing mine
Crawl Customs is designing the kit, go follow his Facebook page and he will make a post when the kits are available. Mine is a prototype kit for the zd30 as his d22 is a yd25.
do you know if there will be a kit for a holden rodeo tf as i intend on doing one of these for my rodeo probably using 80series diffs if possible.
I’m not sure if there is a vehicle specific kit but I know Rampt Customs makes a lot of brackets to suit Toyota’s and their diffs. You might be able to find some universal brackets for the diff and you could make the chassis brackets 👍🏻
@@ReubsModifications that’s the plan.
I'd say a kit like this is way off landing in nz but loving watching the build.
Thanks mate, the kit might be closer than you think 🤫
@@ReubsModifications I'd need a navara first hahaha
Haha you’ll have to think twice about that one 😂
hey mate, where did you get your tub racks from? 🤙🏽
Hey mate, I bought these off of a mate when he parted his d22 out, I think they came from a local fabricator. One thing I’d recommend is if you’re getting them built get some small hooks for tie downs 👍🏻
@@ReubsModifications sweet, trying to find a tub rack that’ll fit with my sports bar cause I don’t want to take it off haha! Do you know any brands or the name of the local fabricator that did your rack?
@@nickshelly4371 I don’t know who made it sorry but it looks like a universal tub rack as the legs can all be adjusted for the width of the tub 👍🏻
We're did you get your frame overlays ?
I bought them from Crawl Customs who now goes by Warrego Metal Works. I’m not sure if they are still available but you can contact him on Facebook 👍🏻
They don't offer a kit, in Australia?
This is the first kit for the D22s
@@ReubsModifications I know Calmini been offering one for awhile, and there is a few in the States, one guy I'll look up the name he will send you a crate, with a high steer kit.
@@ReubsModifications Oh it's "Shadow wolf" they are located in Florida, U.S I believe.
@@Teekay617 sorry I meant this is the first kit in Aus, I think I’ve seen the Calmini kit but I’m pretty sure they use a Dana diff and I don’t think they’re that common over here 👍🏻
@@ReubsModifications It's like a cult following, like anything else some people love em.
How much ride height that you set up?
Ride height will be 150mm from stock height to keep it legal or close to. The actual measurements were taken from the guards stock was 850mm front and 900mm. However with 12in coilovers it will have way more down travel than up travel.
Que eje relacion usaste .?
Creo que la relación de diferencia es de 4.6, sin embargo, estas diferencias se cambian muy fácilmente.
bro, the more castor the better, they drive much nicer
Matt ended up rolling his back, he started around 5 and went back to 3
