I heard the 16" Syncro use suspension from LT model.
So, if I want to convert my normal Syncro to 16" Syncro what part do I need?
or is it possible to do the conversion?
Sorry, if there is a kind of question like this posted before.
I did search in the web but cant find any clue.
Thanks in advance

You will need a complete scrap 16 for all your parts. Very little is of an LT.

LT shoes and drums... perhaps backing plates??? er..... thats it......
As Russel says... you need a dead 16" for the parts, or purchase all the 16" parts...
there are alternative ways to kind of do it... but depends on how deep your pockets are...
Why do you want to go 16"??

I have wreck LT28 and it's ready to be part out.

Any different between normal Syncro and 16" ?
If I fit with LT part... will it gives my Syncro higher?
Thanks Russel and toomanytoys

I think you missunderstand...
there are only 2 or 3 parts from an LT that are 16" the rear brake backing plate, maybe the drum, maybe the brake shoes and maybe the wheel cylinder..
None of these parts will make you syncro higher.....
If you can make any other parts fit (without major re engineering) then let us know

I though the LT spring would make my Syncro a bit higher than normal.
I will let you know when I been thru this modification
