Drive shaft
 

I have a 91 coupe quattro i put it on a lift today after buying it and the drive shaft was missing and the tail to the trans had no hook up for the drive shaft, wtf???? What other trans could fit on it, can you just change the tail or is it just a cap?????

I will post pic soon.

wtf???
 

If it's a coupe <u>quattro</u>, then it has to have a center driveshaft and rear diff.

Post pictures to prove it.

HUH!!!??

Can you still call it a Coupe Quattro?

i guess not do other trans just bolt up to it

Re: wtf???
 

It does have a rear diff and i can turn the spot were you hook up the drive shaft and spin the tires it is a 6 bolt circle. I am thinking that some one eliminated the 4 wheel drive because the exhast was welded in. but the tail of the trans post transfer case does not have a ouput unless hiden buy a cap or cover.

Yes, FWD 90 trans will bolt up to it, but mounts may be different...weird.

*runs to car and looks underneath for drive shaft.*

Wow...
 

I'd be pretty pissed... taking my car back to whomever sold it to me and demanding a refund!

Who converts a quattro to a fwd??? Perhaps there is a way to block off the rear output shaft... but I've never heard of anyone doing that before.

Looking forward to seeing some pictures to get an idea of what they've done!

Where are you located? I'm sure we can find someone close to you with
 

a proper tranny and driveshaft

Maybe had a transmission blow out and replaced with cheap-est available option
 

or maybe had no idea what he was buying and discovered after the fact...
I'm laughing inside... sorry. -Get a refund nsgreen!
