AWD Trans aM
AWD Trans aM Hey, a while ago i saw a thread about someone trying to convert a Trans Am to AWD. Does anyone know where this thread went? I did a search and it didnt find a single thing. Does anyone know if the guy actually did it or not?
I've never seen an AWD F-bod. But I would say it is close to impossible. The is just not enough room for a transfer case in the front of the car. Maybe if you moved the engine into the passenger seat, lol
haha, ya i know, but im trying to find it... i know i remember seeing it! im not crazy! the guys said he was gonna try and use subaru parts for it. he seemed like he had it well planned out... i just forgot what he said!
Yes, My Car Is Awd, It Took Me About One Year To Finish The Entire Setup, Buy It Works Great!
Lol!! I Read About A Subaru With An Ls1 Trying To Keep The Awd With The Ls1. But Never Found Any More Info.

I remember that thread too. Maybe it was deleted for some reason.

I would rather have RWD and lose the back end because of no traction rather than have AWD. If you want AWD get an EVO or STI, american cars are meant for RWD and traction issues.

if you what an AWD Camaro this is what you need to do:
1. buy a SS silverado
2. remove the body
3. shorten the frame so the wheel bases are the same
.

.
.
1000. install the camaro body
I left out 996 steps because those are the really technical steps that I have no idea on how to do it.

For giggles, I started doing some research on awd systems for cars that don't have room to house them. I ran across a guy that built a motorcycle that had both wheels powered off the engine. He did it using a hydraulic pump driven off the crankshaft. Pretty interesting idea.
