any thing is possible. go the wrecking yard and measure from rotor to rotor, i would not go any narrower than the stock bii because it is already a little unsteady in its stock form. also look at the pumkin and make sure it has a drivers side drop, if not it will not work.

sweet, then swap away, shouldn't be that hard. i like off set axles widths anyhow for better traction.
