Sounds like fitting the second gen Rav4 stuff might be more cost-effective, at least due to availability. Not sure how difficult it would be to adapt the rear suspension and make space for the driveshaft, though.

Yea I'm not sure if adapting the rear suspension from the rav4 is the most practical idea. Pretty sure the rav has an independent rear suspension while the yaris/vitz has a torsion beam.

I may have noticed a possible substitute for the awd vitz rear torsion beam. The yaris axle has no provisions for the rear CV shaft to enter the rear wheel bearing to drive the wheel. Anyone know if a 2000-2005 echo rear axle bolts into the yaris?!? Lol it would appear this axle has room for the cv shaft to enter the wheel bearing.
