XT6/EA82 interchangability?


Recommended Posts

For the 5 lug swap you need for the front;

The lower control arms and hubs/rotors/struts.

For the rear just grab the complete trailing arm/hub/rotor because you will want to add the sway bar.

The seats will need to have the brackets modified to fit.

And I think thats it.

tha alternator is a 90 amp unit as opposed to the EA82s 60 amp... but the different style belt/pulley keeps it from quite being "plug and play." Easily remedied if you have any "alternator" or "auto electric" shops left in your area.. but sadly, the craft of rebuilding starters and alternators has fallen out of popularity.. thanks China!!

 

another option for the pulley set up is time spent in a junkyard with some large wrneches, tearing apart other alternators, installing pulleys/spacers, and test fitting into an EA82 car in the boneyard..... just make sure they see you walk in with your alternator!
