If this has been posted before, let me know, I am sorry. How hard is it to change over my rear from drum to disc?? I seen a mercury tracer with all disc and I wanted it so bad. Thanks.

to properly do a rear disk swap you need to grab not only the subframe but the master cyl too. it is an intensive swap, but not impossible.When you turn your car on... does it return the favor?

damn dude, always gotta kick sand in our eyes..... eat a ****ing dick Edwin, ease the hell up man! We 1st gen "experts" do just fine. Post your ****ing facts and move the hell on, i am so sick of your ****ing attitude mixing in with the facts so much i can't even read it, i get so disgusted. Your a poor representation of good information.
Whats so wrong with swaping the entire subframe? So what if it's the same, it's all pre-assembled and ready to go. Plus, you now have extra parts to use just incase. You still will have leftover parts that your probably never going to use again, plus it also gives you a chance to fully inspect the entire subframe with ease, change bushings, clean it well, etc...you know, work smart, not hard.
For a non-experienced or even semi experienced DIYer it's easier to get the whole subframe, than to give him a list of parts and then have him figure out how they all come off. Any half baked DIYer can undo 6 or 8 bolts, 2 brake lines and an ebrake Y junction and walk home with a subframe.

adjustable lateral links
Originally posted by stylingtwagon View Postwhy were some subframes equiped with ajustable ends on one side and others came with both sides ? my wagon has them on both side but the sub frame i got from a egt has ajustments on 1 side ?
Don't mean to question you but are you sure you have 2 adjustable links on each side on your wagon 'cuz I've been looking for a way to adjust camber on the back without using plates....
