Good news
The CV axles for a '79 Horizon with a 1.7L gas engine fit on both ends and are the correct length for an '84 Rampage with a 1.5 Diesel, a Dodge Omni trans, and the knuckles & drive hubs from a '91 Plymouth Acclaim. HOORAY.
The only thing I had to change was the seals on the outside of the outer CV's, to the inside face of the front wheel bearings. Everything bolts up perfectly, the splines match, the axles are the correct lengths, and the transaxle is centered properly.
I realize this pic isn't much to look at, but it does show the passenger's side drive shaft fully functional and in the correct location in space.
This news made me feel so good, I decided to start working on modifying the firewall for turbo clearance.
Making the mental leap to cut the firewall was the toughest part.
This is where the Garrett GT2056 will reside.
Another view, and shortly after I decided that the turbo openings needed to be covered with blue tape.
That's all for tonight.
