    OK thought seeing as I got a few questions about this tub job on my ute I may aswell put it out there for all to see In the hope that it may inspire some to do a similar job on there's with some tips from here there every where.
     
    Start with wheels not ideas.Wheels can be put on a car and measured,ideas can't so be prepared for bad news.In my case I wanted atleast 50mm inboard to fit safely and allow for a bit more tyre at a later date if needed.So fitted the wheels,cut the tubs out and took some measurements and found the diff was 15mm out of square to the right!No wonder it stuck out...
     
    Right side
     
     
    Left side

     
    Next step was cutting floor pan out

     
    This happened in 3 stages

     
    Got a feeling the cutting isn't done yet either.So onto the steel to make it work.I got some 100x50x3.2 wall RHS some 50x50x4mm RHS and some 5mm plate.
     
    Next is measurements...

    I just thought of something, ea series one ran a borg Warner 40 behind a 3.9 (the difference between Au and e series Bellhousings is covered in my 4.0l thread) so you can go 3 speed and it will bolt to an Au engine (an xflow one won't though

    The early eb's (I think) used a standalone trans controller, would control an au trans just as well I would imagine.
     
    Gotta be the easiest way to run a btr in a xfalcon.
