yeaaaah buddy.

Is your Rover red now? I thought it was white? (previous picture in thread) Intentional, to have an all red fleet? haha

this is hilariously awesome

With the 4.10 limited slip my car is super predictable.

Yea I ran some gussets when I did the eccentrics.

With the awd, biggest problem is the open front diff. It either wants to track through the corner or understeer, then the rear kicks out and you go to correct for it, then the front gets traction again and flicks you the other way. It's a constant battle when there's uneven traction unless you go balls out WRC status and keep all 4 spinning

I broke my subframe in the same exact place, guess it's an off-road thing. Oh, and AWD isn't as fun as you'd think

Have you reinforced you rear subframe mounts? That was not a fun fix

And ya i feel like the awd would just be more stuff to break.

Subframe is fixed and getting an oil pan tomorrow. By Thursday it should be back in action!

I tried finding one at the yard but they wanted $140, so I think I'm just going to weld it back and add some gussets to both mounts

That's what I did, I decided it was far faster to just weld then look for another that would break again

I did mine on the top for slightly more ground clearance.

Mine pulled that same crap with the subframe... Heck of a PITA to fix.

RWD is more funz

Yes! and with the 4.10 limited slip I've never felt like I needed awd. It would just limit my front travel options
