So,
I just wrote off my permanent 4, and the chassis is pretty f***ed, but i possibly have access to another rolling shell, are there any differences that i will need to take note of when swapping over the driveline?
anything i should have reinforced / doublechecked to ensure the car lasts?
any bracing or anything i should weld in to improve the handling?
Cheers
Rob |

| If you're thinking of using a fwd shell to transplant your p4 into then i doubt it can be done as there's a big difference ie, boot floor is different in p4 to take the petrol tank, prop tunnel, exhaust mountings etc............ |
