Irs rear set up into a wagon?

[pjdm1980]

Anyone know if you can bolt an irs out of a VP Calais into a VP Berlina wagon or how many mods it would take?

Been talked about a few times and came up with a NO wont work. But anything is possible if you want to go that far.......

Heaps of welding/fabrication work but I've seen a VL with a skyline IRS rear end in it on the net so anythings possible

Yeah, possible, but not practical. Much like making it 4wd. Possible - not practical.

A old mate of mine swaped VR Caprice for a White VN wagon from QLD it had the original V6 enigine and box but sat on a Hilux chassis and suspension look tough as, that was about 4 years ago he said the original owners paid a heap to get it engineered though.

anything like this?

range rover chassis is about the right wheel base. have not checked the width yet.

Could always convert a Stato into a wagon like the one on ebay a while ago if you want an IRS wagon badly

would be alot of hard work, ps i like that 4x4 lol

the wagon & vq had the longer rear end so i would imagine that they were different spec to a sedan.... best off to grab a measuring tape and a mate to confirm it.

You are talking about putting irs on an already irs equiped vehicle?? or do you want to cnovert from live axle to irs?? if so good luck

Actually Morton the Hilux/Commodore Ive seen was so low the bumper was scraping the floor basically, i think it was a white VR/VS

As everybody else has said - anything is possible but it is a ton of work. If you are that keen then pick a better IRS system than the VP Commodore one.

All wagons before the VT are live axle!

VQs, utes and wagons are the same wheel base.
ALL VQs have IRS, all wagons and utes (before VT still) are live axle!

IRS was optional on VP-S, other than Calais and some berlina's that it was standard on.

Yeah that looks spot on it had the same little flares but it was white when he got it!

Anyone got any ideas where it is now?

I've seen a few aswell, chances are a company actually made them, similar to the 1 tonner co that converted sedans to one tonners
