Could i put a 200tdi engine and box into this thing above! How hard would it be, and permanant 4 wheel drive shouldnt be too hard cause its got 90 axles am i right?
Kind regards Sam

tomarse:
Sounds like youve got it right!. the perm 4wd will be no problem witht he 90 axles. You might have to have custom props made up to the right length but that isnt hard.

To be honest, if i were going to the hassle of coil springing a series i would go  for a new engine with 90 box at the same time seems silly keeping the old 2.25!

90sam:
Thats what i thought! But hey if i get it then it gives me a project ready for when i can drive! And plus its tax exempt so will be cheaper to run! Would all the mounts be the same? and will i have to use a ninety front?

tomarse:
im not sure that the gearbox mounts are the same but someone with more experience might be able to tell you more.

Leslie Henson:
If you have an exempt vehicle with different axles, coil suspension, different engine and gearbox, then you have a dodgy motor that should really be a q-reg. If the chassis was still standard, then the whole vehicle would be only 5-points.
