Hi,
I have seen many xh front panel conversions to XD, XE, XF Ute but they still have the old steering box and coil spring setup… I have some photos.
I plan to build an xf sedan with the complete xh front from doors to the bumper, cut and shut. Has anyone seen this done icon_question.gif Some people have said to me buy an xh Ute!! icon_rolleyes.gif Well I like both so why not put them together and make something a little different with a turbo 6 or a hot injected v8, auto.

Cheers

Here are some pics of an xd with the xh xr front panel conversion.

With the bonnet down it looks like an xh ute!!

Do the conversion to a sedan or wagon, with super low suspension that would be a head turner.
