Nothing against you bro... but you're taking too big of a bite. Based on your topic in General Discussion... you need to do a fair bit of research, just to know the basics of a Toyota swap, before you start venturing with AWD conversions, and even those crazy dudes who wanna do V10 Mid Engine conversions and such. I know they're just kidding (hopefully...) but just so you know... most of them really haven't a clue about how to build a custom car (nothing against you guys... really...
 ) I mean, it's not terribly hard (engine swap and possible AWD conversion), but it's no cake walk. Learn the basics... know how different Toyota engines and drivetrain are set-up, and perhaps this can be done. That... or throw a big chunk of change at a very skilled performance shop... but if that were the case... what's the point in asking us questions...Also, I did write up a pretty complete list of parts for an AWD conversion in the suspension forum. Try a search there... -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl... I'm an artist!"

[right][snapback]237451[/snapback][/right] I was going to say some stuff but this guy worte that but ... its not as hard as some might think.... a rear wheel drive conversion takes time and u have to do ur homework first.... Frist things frist ... Parts what parts ur celi has and what parts do u need to get and what u need to swap out and replace.. Then what tools u need ... . start for them transmission the work ur self back .... if u really want to do this... frist step i would take if i was u .. would be to get the repair texts for ST205/ST185 ST204/AT200 -------------------- |
