As far as it goes I have a 1997 legacy awd wagon I removed the rear CV axles in it for a flat track race but it lost all power (will mive foward and backward but has half the power of awd) with the CVS and drive shaft out it did not change the only way to make you awd if its a manual trans to a fwd you have to weld the center differential its a process but it can be done. And when I removed the drive shaft the grinding noise stopped so I'm sure the rear diff is bad

Is there a way to do this with out having to weld it. I don't have the time to pull the center diff and have it welded could I weld the rear drive shaft in place and do almost the same thing

I have a 5 speed legacy outback and the rear dif is bad I've pulled the CV axles and drive shaft yet it has half the power how would I make it fwd with the same power I don't want to weld the center diff I want to put the new rear end in eventually.

ive got like 5 days till the event and could reallyuse the help

does anyone know of any way to make my legacy outback from all wheel drive to front wheel drive. i have seen the fuse and all for the automatic only trans. i have a manual 5 speed transmission. help me please ive tried removing the rear cvs but all that did was loose all the power. i need front wheel drive for a flat track race so if anyone can help me that would be great.
