the tranny will bolt up to any d series. it uses a half shaft system. so those are the only holes that will be off, to the pass side, directly under the alternator. the length of the driveshaft will need to be changed. and mouting for the rear diff. also you would need the rear hubs from a wagon. it uses a viscous coupler (spelling), so you will also need mounts for that in the center of the drive shaft. it uses a 2 shaft system, with the front shaft spinning all of the time. etc... just like any slush box 4wd.

 

Yep, two years ago I swapped a ZC into a buddies AWD wagon. That thing had me hooked, took me this long to finally find another one for a decent price(free!).
Whatever the drivetrain is, with all 4 wheels off the ground(on jack stands :P ), if you spin any of the front wheels, the rear ones spin as well. So....whats this mean? I thought it was a viscous coupling or whatever, so that when theres a difference between the front and rear wheel-speeds that only THEN the rear wheels would engage. It also goes two ways, the rears spin the fronts. Unless mine is broken, and its stuck in 4WD mode :P
I just finished my ghetto hood scoop. With some Bondo, and TLC, I think it could actually look pretty good I surprised myself. Pics coming soon, ALONG WITH VIDEOS!

 

so let me get this right. the transfer dif doesn bolt to the trans. ? if thats the case SWEETTTTTT !!!!! as for it being a vicsous coupling is probably a helical side gear arragnement like a typical thrimemeber in a v8 car. as for the rear diff ahh b20 crv etc could be used id still have to put in some sort of viscous coupling of limted slip in the trans. i like this. could you please grab some pics of how this is all set up. THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!1

sincerly

tinker weld the ------- diff up in the trani.
full time 4wd to all wheels.

 

When it goes in the 4dr, this will be done for now though, its just fine as-is. I went and looked at another wagon for a buddy(the one who gave me this one) yesturday while I was waiting for an argo refill He decided against it because it was an automatic. Oh well, maybe next time. Well, today Should be video day if I can figure out how to host my own videos :P

 

take it into a mud pit at 60km/h

 

only if you tell me WTF your avatar is...lol. Looks like a banana whapping Tein-man...lol

 

thats one banana humping the other one

 

OK, mudpit at 60 Mph Maybe ill do Kph, my ghetto exhaust might end up laying in the mud

 

I think we should get a thread about your Twin engine Del sol project going too... I'm very interested to see how that goes
