I know Jano (oddkiddcreations.co.uk) does a fitting kit for the MTX75 gearbox to fit straight into your S2, but im not sure what you need to do to make the 4x4 box work im afraid..........

Sure someone will be able to enlighten us though

ok... got the box off, took the transfer box off and theres a long spline coming out the end of the gearbox.. which prevents you from fitting a normal length cv joint, looks like you have to use the transfer box..

Anyone want to swap a 4x4 rs2k box for a 2wd one?
