so my buddy has decided to buy his old xt 2wd back for a couple hundred and has a blown motor and i was wondering if anyone has done or knows what it takes to do a ej turbo swap in them such as crossmember rear diff front a arms blah blah blah if anyone can help just looking for some input couldnt find a thread:confused: and also is there a differance in tranny crossmember and struts and a arms or engine cross member from the 2wd to 4wd?

all input appreciated

Crossmember needs swapped or modified

 

That's it as far as the body. The rest of the EJ swap is just adapter and wiring.

 

 

Now if you want to go to EA 4wd

 

Fabricate carrier bearing mount

 

Fabricate mustache bar mount

 

EA 5spd and driveline will bolt right in.

 

Using a D/R would need and adapter plate. Using a S/R you can swap trans case for an EJ, use EJ clutch, no adapter.

 

 

 

For EJ AWD

 

Fabricate carrier bearing mount

 

Fabricate mustache bar mount

 

Fabricate EJ 5spd trans mounting crossmember, and shifter. Custom length driveline needed.
