Missus wrote our fg2 xr6t (manual) off (got t-boned). Got a ba2 xr6 auto in good nick. Will front and rear cradles bolt in new to old? Thinking yea. Who's done it already? Rebodying basically. 32000kms, I bought her brand new...... Boohoooo Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/93120-fg2-xr6t-into-ba2-xr6/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fgx Front cradle into a b series is not a bolt in deal, would require very large amounts of fab. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/93120-fg2-xr6t-into-ba2-xr6/#findComment-1636654 Share on other sites More sharing options...
menicing Member 19 Member For: 12y 4m 10d Posted 16/04/17 09:29 AM Share Posted 16/04/17 09:29 AM to fit the engine to b series car you only need to change the sump, oil pickup, dipstick (which you may need to drill the block for depending if it has the front hole or not), and finally trim the splash guard as its in the way of the dipstick, pcm will have to be a b series so you'll need to retune it to suit engine and also code in the gearbox depending which one you use... hopefully that helps a little 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/93120-fg2-xr6t-into-ba2-xr6/#findComment-1636681 Share on other sites More sharing options...
