Hi guys, I am a 5th Gen ST185 owner, and I am just curious in finding info on making the full swap with the AWD into a ST20X chasis. I know one person in the swaps section tried performing the swap but had alignment issues, and that is as much information that I have found.

What I am basically looking for is the following:

o How well does the rear end align up from the ST185 to a ST20X chasis

o Where is the fuel tank usually placed?

o How well does the suspension match up from the ST185 to the 6th gen?

o Is there sufficent room for the driveshaft tunnel to make it from the engine bay to the rear diff?

o Any other links from people who have successfully made the conversion?

o Would purchasing a full ST205 cut in half be more feasible than sourcing parts from a ST185?

If you have a ST185 wouldnt you already have AWD? Why would you want to make it to the 205? It wouldn't make sense to do all that work swapping from the USDM All-Trac hp of 200 for an 60 additional hp of the stock JDM 205.
