hi all, i have been using this site for advice a few times now so thought i better introduce myself, have always had fords, i am a welder to trade so if anyone needs owt done just give us a shout, am about 20 mins from glasgow and have all my own gear, i originally bought a 2.0 gli with the intent to fit a boa, its still sitting in my garage with its 2ltr in, the engine and loom are still there too, the reason  i managed to get a 88 2.8 xr4x4 which i now use as the weekend toy, run a di transit all week to afford it  i was planning putting my boa in it but i really want to drive it like i remember my old 2.3 ghia which had a 2.8 with a 2.3d 5 speed ie rwd. i just cant get any fun out the xr, it just grips all the time  will it be better with the boa in it or should i just sell the two to go towards the xr4i i think i really want ? is changing it to rwd as simple as just removing the front prop ? would try that for a weekend to see what its like, dont wanna sell it really, just not long got it on the road

Hello Shaun and welcome  Only you know what you really want mate,  but I think 2wd will be more fun with 200 hp  and no just the prop is not the answer, I'm afraid it's the box
