ClutchCrusher Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 How many different parts can I take(interior, exterior, mechanical, ect.), from a Fwd, auto, '84gl wagon, to use for my 4X4 '86 hatch? Interior mostly, but what all will fit? A kinda test-your-knowledge thing! C'mon who knows the most? Things like doors, rear hatch, seriously I have no idea what will or won't fit.

Gl-boost Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Well I don't mean to break it to you, but If you have a 2 door hatch, the doors and hatch from a wagon won't work. Possibly the fenders foward will, plus some interior bits and pieces, probly anything on the doors except for the handle belzels wont work. Dash pieces should be the same. I may be wrong though as im going of memory from the two, but its really al down to trial and error and what obviously wont fit just by looking at it. I have had taken parts of other cars before that would look the same but be within centimeters off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 He's right. Brat, Coupe, Hatch - same doors. Wagon, Sedan - same doors. Front seats are the same, front carpet, dash (except shifter console, and radio console), Window cranks, etc Dash forward should near the same for mechanical stuffs.

ClutchCrusher Posted April 29, 2006 Author Share Posted April 29, 2006 I can still use the engine, dash, front seats, right? What else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralDisorder Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Yep - everything from the front seats forward - except the tranny and clutch. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClutchCrusher Posted April 30, 2006 Author Share Posted April 30, 2006 What other Engines can I put in, EA82? How about one of those 2.2's out of some 90's cars? And if I was able to put in such a monster would my stock tranny hold up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phizinza Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Theres plenty of info on the EJ22's around here. Basiclly, your trans should hold up to a EJ22 N/A. If you like dumping the clutch, then maybe you should concider collecting old transmissions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
