Bizzard Quattro feeling on 100Q

[Denis]

  The ratio be the same , i took the tranny and the rear diff from my old
5000tq 87.
  I ll check the speed of the front and rear flange with a sensor on both to
mesure the speed and compare them.

  I ll jump the rear and see if the rear is hard to make it turn...
  I tried this when the rear diff was off the car.
