Gearbox tunnel needs widening a bit with a hammer, unless you have a body lift. Is better to run a 1.3 radiator, as the 1.0 sits too low, and cooling system can get vapour lock at top. Causing carby choke issues and overheating, sometimes. Bonnet clearance is an issue, easily solved with body lift, 1.3 bonnet or modding 1.0 bonnet with a power bulge/scoop. Tailshaft bolt patterns are different, but theres plenty of solutions for that. Best to use a 1.3 jackshaft, as the 1.0 is a bit longer. The rest is just fabricating gearbox and motor mounts, as they are not the same. |

A 2" body lift is all that most people use. |

X2. NT and 1.0 use the same bolt size but the pattern is smaller on the 1.0. WT/Vitara is a bigger pattern and bolts. |
