4WS to 2WS Conversion Question

Post by K4MR411 » Mon Aug 13, 2012 10:18 am

Im planning on doing the conversion this week. I've gathered the parts i need, but one question remains.
The bolts that hold the 4WS subframe in place, can these be used for the 2WS subframe?

I would buy new lower arm and toe arm nuts and bolts. The adjustment plates may be able to be reused although some come attached to the bolt.

I would have made a how to guide, but im working on thursday unfortunately so my brother will be doin the conversion during the day. I'll ask him to take a few snaps but i told him to follow the link vtectom posted, which is quite helpful.
