4age rwd or fwd

[imlach74]

im in search of a 4age for my ta22
and from everything i have read getting a rwd out of a sprinter is the best to do
but............i cant find any....there is heaps of fwd setups....if i was to buy a fwd is it much harder to attach the rwd gearbox and fit it in the car??
thanks

dude please do some research!!! basically the difference between the rwd and fwd 4ag's is the water pump and ancilleries (excepting 20v) i am currently researching a 20v into my '22.

basically there is a bit of fucking around with a welder to be had with mounts and crossmembers, and a bit of difficulty with sourcing a bellhousing, depending on whether you get an adm or jdm housing, one of these will reqire you to swap clutch slave and re-rout lines, (cant remember which one). if going 20v need an ae82 remote thermostat and a few odds and ends for re-routing water, also either a hole in ur wall or covert to coilpacks and unless you want to make a manifold and get an afm and piping going an aftermarket ecu will help greatly (and comes out on top when looking at a cost benefit analysis)

so in short read, ask me any q's ya need also talk to sam q, slydar and monk on ae86 dc

and dont ask any of the aforementioned "how do i do this conversion"
