This is awesome. Good work, and I can't wait to see it running in AWD.

still less people than when Stealthee got hit by a dump truck

Nice work, but the only thing that worries me is the small subframe studs that you put a larger stud over it. The smaller stud is still supporting the new rear, it just has bigger clothes on. Should be fine though. i am curious to see how it holds up when is awd. real impressive though.

Bob's RT is still puting around IIRC, so is Emilie's AWD ATX. Bob's is at least 5+ years old, Emilie's AWD Auto is 2. Shouldn't be a major problem Steve-O.

SWEET.... dude I want you to do this to my car Evan.... FWD is the sucks. Today the snow was so bad I couldn't get the beater out of my driveway and I had to take my SL out >_<. It drives decent in the snow but I could think of is how awesome AWD would be.... what do you charge?

What rims are those bro?

[Alt0id]

It'd be neat.. and I am not knowledgeable lol but if there was a way to modify the subframe to work with the existing fwd rear, but thats probably not possible.
