audi 90q front sub frame

[donald grady]

i'm taking the motor and trans (20v) out of a 89 coupe, and planting it in a 88 audi 90. i was out playing in our latest blizzard and put it over a curb, bending the control arm and showing a scary hole in the frame. i decided if i'm changing that much i might as well go the distance instead of ripping it apart twice. the frame on the coupe is in nice shape and the control arms are a much nicer design.i was hoping to use them too instead of dismantling the power pac from the motor and trans. steel lobes.
