A quick question to those that know (I don't :oops:

) can a Mk7 FWD body shell be converted to accept RWD running gear :?:

is the bulkhead and floor pan the same (or drastically different) :?:

and rear spring mounts :?:

I know that this COULD be done, but is it fairly straightforward or more bother than its worth :?:

Cheers in advance

PS just spoke to Karl and its a No No

(Back to plan A then :roll:

)

I agree, rwd has less floor height on the chassis.
You could probably make a bigfoot tho

Bulkheads the same, but the rear floor from behind the cab is 4" higher on a rwd,
