FWD to RWD
How would you convert a FWD card to RWD? I'm not saying for a particular car, but let's use a Mk3 escort as an example. How much will this cost and is it even worth it?
Thanks.
Thanks.
(very very very extremely rough guide) as you say no particualr car - make a trasmission tunnel, rear beam mount from a RWD car and diff mount etc. engine mounts for a longtidudinal engine and gear box mounts.
for a mk3 escort i would cut the floor pan out and fit one from a sierra then its bolt on (well its alot of work but far less then swapping the floor) to put the sierra stuff back on
cost: alot, unless you love the car and thats what you want to do, or want to do something radicul with it
worth it: as above really, far easier to buy a rwd car that you like
