AWD info - Toyota Yaris Forums

You're right, some sort of custom length driveshaft will probably be needed. Theres actually quite a few driveline and bearing shops just to the east of me in oshawa.

I have a strong desire to keep this as oem as possible though. Not necessarily model specific (ie a rav diff in a yaris), but use toyota parts where possible.

It may be naive of me to think, but if everything is installed where it should be (ie correct driveshaft angles and such) I shouldn't have many problems with broken parts. The ravs are apparently just as bulletproof as a yaris. But maybe I think that way cause of my 4"lift kit. Over 20,000km and no issues yet!

And to touch on Honda, I seen a YouTube video where a guy bolted crv rear end bits onto a civic. Kinda pissed me off a bit lol honda guys have it easy. Awd, endless motor setups, big power for cheap and all the support you could ask for. But easy isn't challenging :)

I do think the rear suspension will be the hardest thing to make work.
