its possible. he will have to swap out the entire rear end.

he wants the whole rear end though including tail lights, 1 of 2 options would be just get a clip of a wrecked Focus.

How about swapping the SPI motor for a Zetec or SVT Instead of spending all that money on swapping the entire rear end???

And I think the center consoles from 00-07 are all the same. If so, I have one with an armrest, in charcoal, that I would gladly sell/trade if you can get me one without an armrest.

Rear end swap? Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't unibody cars... not exactly... yeah, the rear end is all chassis or linked directly to it?

The tach guage cluster swap is easy and relatively cheap. =)

Also, since you have an 04, a -total- SVT brake swap is possible, provided you're going with 16s or larger. Those brakes be the stoppingest.

i x2 that....i'd swap out for an svt engine instead of the rear....how many sedans do you see running around with an svt engine?

Don't listen to these fools. keep the spi.
Engine swaps are expensive.....mod what you have.
Sounds like you have good plans dude.....post some pics.

I would post some recent pics but no camera yet. A SVT engine swap is exactly what i had in mind. Thanks for all the welcomes since i joined the site 3 years ago.
