Rear subframes normal & 4WS versons

Ive got a question.
Ive got a spare 4WS rear subframe for a SVX.
If I stuffed the one on my Normal Svx can I use it minus the 4WS motor etc?
Or is it only good for some one with a 4WS SVX.
If thats the case I will sell my one on to some one who has a 4WS SVX.
Thanks

Re: Rear subframes normal & 4WS versons

I believe you're going to have to use a non 4ws subframe. If you simply remove the steering rack, the rear wheels are just going to flop around.

Re: Rear subframes normal & 4WS versons

So will that mean the rear hubs will be no good to use too?

Are the rear hubs different too? can I use them with normal sub frame? or do I sell them with my sub frame?

Cool Re: Rear subframes normal & 4WS versons

might be better to take photos, so that people who have never seen a 4WS system can identify what is different from "normal" non-steering type.
