Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone out there has used tha Calmini Solid Axle Swap Kit for the D22 Frontier, (Navara where I'm from) and is willing to share some info on it.

I'm in Australia and the Navara (Frontier) isn't a commonly modified vehicle so I'm having a real hard time finding any info. What I'm chasing is.....

1) How good is the Kit? For strength, design etc. and how is Calmini's product support and backup as far as warranty goes?

2) How do the coil-over shocks perform and how easy is it to lift a vehicle with coil-overs?

3) How much is involved in the removal of the IFS componentry? (any photo's here would be GREAT)

Just trying to get a more solid idea of what's involved in the swap so I know what I'm in for. Not too keen on flying blind into a AUD$5000 project. As far as I can tell, I'd be the first in Australia to do the swap so I'm having to look further afeild to find someone who has done it!

Cheers guys,

"Track Bar Issues"? in What respect?

Is the mod you mention a Calmini one (ie: they've realised the problem and fixed it)? Or did someone just work it out before them?
