Lambo, this sounds correct, but you would need to check that the components are the same strength/size as in the FWD box. The reason I say that is that a FWD box transmits all the torque to 1 axle, so in theory has to be stronger than an AWD which shares the torque between two. I don't know whether that is so in this case, can anyone enlighten us on this?
