You have to cut the brackets on the chassis and re-angle them

I did it on my SFA. You have to move the mountings and best use Hilux mountings. I tried ford but broke on the first 4x4 trip.

I have done quite a few conversions in my lifetime.
Going semi solid mounts on all my conversions of late. They are indestructible an easy to make fit all type of engines and conversions

Re: KZTE into a SFA
Those look very interesting, where does one get them. What type of bush is inside the mounting.
