Doing an AWD Right Drive Swap, pictures explain it all. If you don't like my way go buy your own and build it better, then you can talk trash! Also for everyone who thinks welding two pieces of a car together is a bad idea, go lift up your back seat and see where the factory welded the two pieces of your car together before they sold it to you!

i like this build a lot
 . funny how ignorant people are to REAL body/chassis work though. i have spliced a few vehicles that would have ordinarily been scrap and they turned out just dandy. the whole car is made of panels spot welded together so why couldn't he do it like this? anytime someone gets t boned and a rocker is replaced it is done in the same way - with a sleeve an plug welds.... i have always wondered why no one has just welded a clip instead of swap parts....quicker IMO. a few cuts and some measuring, not remove 2 cars worth of under hood stuff and dash/firewall.... then replace This post has been edited by b1gr3d: Jan 8, 2010 - 9:52 AM -------------------- Coming in 2010 full paintjob - new wheels - modified body - new interior - engine build- marriage |
