jono Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 The EA82 engineers slipped up and used the same centre-to-centre measure for the pressed metal trans tunnel brace as the EA81 auto trans cross member mounting points So....why not? I may adapt my 4WD as a FWD yoke holder when I pull the tailshaft trick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carfreak85 Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 So you were able to bolt in an EA81 crossemember onto your EA82, but that the new part doesn't support anything? That would be pretty cool, a low buck chassis stiffener! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jono Posted August 3, 2018 Author Share Posted August 3, 2018 I haven't tried your suggestion. This is EA82 part into EA81 body. Only uses half the four bolt holes, so not much of a chassis stiffener but I guess it leaves things open for modification to add more holes, crush tubes and bolts through to the floor. Correct at this time the EA82 chassis stiffener holds nothing at all BUT it has got it off the to do list and to do shelf even though it advanced to the passengers footwell and as I said the intention is to add to it to stop a tailshaft yoke from popping out while in weight saving/friction reducing/fuel economy boost FWD mode - ie no tailshaft, rear diff, axles of hangers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
