Would new tyres and perhaps weights work? Take care buying a 4WD. If its done a lot of work you could be buying a lot of expense. DavidP [Reply]  [No Email]

It can be a learning process or not! [Reply]  [No Email]

I'm guessing that you will have the AD4.203 engine fitted in which case you will probably have problems fitting the front axle casting to carry the 4WD axle. If you have the A4.212 engine I think it will be easier. As far as I am aware the spacer which carries the drive assembly should bolt straight in. You will of course have to modify brakerods, footplates, and possibly the fenders. DavidP, South Wales [Reply]  [No Email]
