  1. Thanks for the advice, all I know is that right now I have a FWD Baja with no real modding, if anyone was any POSITIVE advice on how to do a computer change to RWD please Reply, otherwise, don't bother my time.
  2. I don't see anything about it being soley mechanical. Lookup the automatic, none of it talks about the transmission computer. Lack of information there chief.
  3. Watch "Ferris Bueller's Day Off", man that's don't a good thing to try, especially since it would jump the jacks and really mess stuff up. BTW, the manual says it works in FWD.
  4. I've lifted the car and the front and only the front, both tires, spin. It feels totally different and I can chirp the fronts, they wouldn't spin on blacktop but did in the dirt, left two holes at the front tires.
  5. Yeah there is a computer and a there is a spot it the fuse box to override it to FWD. BTW, I already have a '91 and '98 vette.
  6. The AWD cannot be all mechanical, the logics of it doesn't work. Anyhow, you can out what I have said. Open up the fuse box and look at the diagram, it still has a spot called FWD, pop a fuse in their and test drive it. I did it and lift it to make sure it was just leading with the front like STIs can.
  7. I came from having a RWD car and like how it drives, I probably don't have enough HP for burnouts. If I can just get the computer to make it RWD instead of FWD I'll have the equivalent to RWD with LSD.
  8. Either '07 or '08. Right now they have their older version of AWD in some of the Escapes but soon or possibly the new models now will have the same AWD as the Subarus
  9. But the axles aren't receiving any more torque or load, the physics of them are not changing
  10. I just really like RWD, beside my truck is pretty close to 50/50 so it's going to hold. About the strength, I have the sport, not the turbo, and they have the same parts so I should be fine.
  11. welding the front differential would only give me really bad awd and mess everything up.
  12. In the manual it says the jumper is only for automatics, but it still works on sticks, atleast mine.
  13. I've brought my car in four times in the first six months for repairs on a brand new Baja. The fourth time was the worst, my first and second gear broke free and I drove to the dealership in third gear, and it was in for the transmission three days prior. Atleast warranty covered it.
