So I read the Nivomat conversion page in the FAQs, but it describes an IRS sedan. Anyone know the differences for a solid axle 765 turbo? My nivomats are not totally gone yet, but I can hear the death rattle (figurative) and see the driver's side sag (actual).

The work for the IRS conversion does not look too daunting, but I would like to know what I am getting into first. As an example, will the same 245 overload springs work? Will they still need a spacer and a portion of the coil snipped? Should just get junkyard 745 springs and the appropriate (new) shocks for a non-nivomat 745?

thanks,

OnkelUdo
