Would it be possible to fit a 9" that suits an EH fit in an LJ without much drama? I havent had a look at it, just running ideas through my head (again :D )

What about the track widths?

Eh rear end is wider. Not sure by how much but it was a common thing for EH cars to run the LJ rears to get wider rear tyres and bigger offsets in there. Personally I think you might find you will have issues getting the rear under there. Not to mention there will be alot of modification to even get the suspension arms on that it would end up cheaper in the long run to get a new housing made. Then you have axle length issues...etc etc.

Cheers
