So yesterday my car battery ran flat coz niliwacha radio on for a long time. So nikaenda kwa jirani who has a farm with trucks and big tractors kuomba battery ni jamsatrt yangu… then I noticed a nice Land Rover KAA, hukuangi nayo. He said he just bought it… nikashngaa mbona ananunua guzzler hivyo. Akasema its not a guzzler ati gear box na body peke yake ndio Land Rover engine ni Diahatsu very economical on fuel (diesel) and still very strong.

Is this mechanically possible? Did I’ve seen another short chassis Land Rover I might try that trick on it…

These conversions are all over the place.
Easier on rear wheel drive cars.
The main mods are to the engine mountings and bell housing.

Forget Premio and NZE.
Do research on some Nissan and Toyota engines that are classified as gems among petrol heads.
Heck, there are people who even replace stock American muscle with some of them.
Nissan RB26 DETT, VQ30DET and SR20DET
Toyota 2JZ, 1UZ and 2UZ.
