Best Answer

Anything is possible with time, money and some serious modification. Front wheel drive vehicles are not designed to accept the dimensions of the parts that are needed for rear wheel drive. The engine compartment is designed to accept transverse (sideways) mounted engines not inline engines, there's no transmission and driveshaft tunnel, a custom driveshaft would likely be required, there's no clearance for a rear differential, etc. Converting a front wheel drive vehicle to rear wheel drive would probably cost considerably more than buying a rear wheel drive vehicle.

What is the difference between front wheel drive and two wheel drive?

A front wheel drive vehicle is only driven with the front wheels. It will have a transmission in the front with drive lines attached. A two wheel drive vehicle is any vehicle that is only driven by two wheels. It can be a front or rear wheel vehicle. For instance. My dodge ram 1500 v6 is two wheel drive from the rear. An Oldsmobile cutlas cirea is two wheel drive but in the front. I hope this helped. Derek
