Re: metro compared to suzuki

Just about everything would be interchangable. You'd have to replace the whole rear knuckle for the swap though. Not just the drum/hub. I'm pretty sure the intermittent wipers use a seperate controller box under the dash. I'd get a manual and check out the wiring harness before venturing into that. The column switch would have to be changed too. Body parts would be the same, and the suspension parts would be a bit beefier, because they're for the 4cyl. The front brakes would be bigger too. And it'll have front and rear swaybars. The tranny would fit, but the gear ratio will be different. More like 3.83:1 than the 4.10:1 you probably have in it right now. It'll be hard to keep it goin 70 uphill with that final drive. Not to mention harder to get moving, and probably will throw your speedo off.
