Im considering converting the corsa to a 2.0.
Now theres a few tatty bits in the engine bay id like cleaned up aswell as a strengthening kit fitted.
If i remove the rad, original engine, gearbox and shafts etc can i still roll it on the wheels and hubs?
Pretty much i'd like to strip the bay and get it sent off to have the work done.. would it be ok or would the bearings, hubs, flanges colapse?

you can run them on the standard hubs i believe, but better for stronger one's ..and wheels remember you'll want brakes

yes you can still move it about just build the front up without the driveshafts in

Cheers Daz
was worrying that without the hub nut they fall out
its literally just to get it on a wagon to get it to somewhere to have the bay cleaned up and strengthened

if its rolled around alot the bearing can collapse. since you'll be using conversion hubs and cv joints,
take the outer cv joint off the shaft. and bolt it in the hub asif it were the whole driveshaft. can just spin freely then
