2wd clutch cable.

Why dont you leave the 4x4 front end in saves replacing a lot of parts

[the youth]

you don't need to chnage the rear beam at all if keeping the power sensible

Leave the front end 4x4 but change the sump to 2wd, thats what im doing atm

Why do you need to change the 4x4 flywheel?

I just bought a 2wd saff and swapped everything over.

Then all you have to do is get the prop shortened and a different cradle.

Part no for the cradle you Part number: 6177696

That cradle is a direct replacement to fit the 2wd box into a 4x4 tunnel...... The mount sweeps up very close to the speedo cable, but just bend it round it

i was thinnking that i could use the 4x4 flywheel & clutch? i did this conversion 8yrs ago but cant remember what parts i used as i had a rear ended saff that i built into an esc then but was just using all the bits

cheers lads i will have to price everything up then

[FletchCossie]

Clutches are the same I'm pretty sure. Maybe need a 2wd flywheel due to different length input shaft?

Can someone confirm if we need it or not please?

As far as i know the only difference with 2wd and 4x4 flywheels are the weight, 4x4 ones were heavier so theres no need to change them, im not going to just wack a 2wd starter on

[dom123]

you dont need to change the any of the front bits its abit of a waste of money imo, as the 2wd sump fits straight on no problems... why replace all your brake bells and suspenion to have a 2wd cross member not worth it imo

the flywheels is only a weight issue.. could be left..
you do need a 2wd clutch realise bearing..

you dont need a 2wd down pipe if your running a 4x4 exhaust manifold.

i honest believe if you up rate the lsd on a the 7" dif or weld it, it will take 400bhp, my standard 7" took a beaten..

the 4x4 clutch cable works as well..

you dont need to replace the oil pick either..

Am I right in thinking the reason you cant use the 4x4 sump is that the starter is in a diff position?

yes mate you can use it but you have to grind it, its a abit of a messy conversion... i wacked a 2wd big winged sump on far neater, i wanted a biger sump for drifting really..
