What would an AWD swap be worth/ whats needed???

[Austin@STM]

Like the title says, im trying to figure out what a AWD swap would normally be worth and what parts they normally include.

It can be as simple as the rear brackets and subframe, or a full tt chassis swap with tranny, transfer case, driveshaft, front knuckles, and a oem TT suspension with lowering springs.

Just trying to figure out a good way to sell off some parts, if its worth it i'll sell it all in one big package.

thanks

Well there are different ways to do it.

Mine

Shooters (I did mine like this one)

Shooters 100% conversion

This is a list of people that have done it. He hasn't updated it in a long time.

You could gauge interest before cutting the car up. I know Jason (PMP) was cussing me when he cut the front rear subframe mounts off for my car.

the most popular (imho, easiest) method of doing it involves cutting the mounts off the donor car. not really a good idea for a frame you want to continue to utilize.

I know how to remove the parts, just wondering what people usually pay for the swaps, and what they usually get. Im trying to sell all the stuff.

Sorry, I was just trying to show it depends on how you do it for what parts you need. I have no idea on a package thing. I don't think I've ever seen an AWD conversion sold as a package. I'd just make a list of everything and look up what people are getting for the parts then cut a % off for buying all the stuff.

BTW if this is a donor car you are cutting up I'd be interested in the rear mounting bolts for the rear subframe. I just had some AWD ones cut off, drilled out and threaded but I'd like to go through the top and replace them with the AWD ones.

You aren't converting to RWD are you?

Cool idea, Austin. I'll be impressed if you find a profitable way to sling kits.

[Austin@STM]

No problem, I appreciate the help. Just wondering really if anyone had a number in there head. I have no idea what a package deal would be worth.

Kind of like a TT conversion, non really have the same parts. Like an ECU, radiator, etc.

Trans
Flywheel
transfer case
Driveshaft
Rear subframe and rear diff
AWS delete or TT power steering pump and rack.
Subframe Mounts
Front knuckles, half shafts, TT breaks

Some of the things you can offer for an AWD conversion off the top of my head.
