Right. I guess I should start posting a couple pictures. lol
This is the subframe for the project. It will bolt right up under the frame after I take out the existing axle and leaf spring system. I am making the halfshaft extensions now at the moment and just waiting for an air bag suspension system to show up.
I have the complete Leaf loom but there are a lot of inputs to the breaking system, hall sensors, steering sensor (I'm not sure I have that component), yaw sensor, and they all work to control the ABS system. Any insight into simplifying this mess would be appreciated.

Hi , new to this thread, we have put together a geo metro with a 2013 leaf drive train, using our vcu to control the CAN messages that run the inverter. I would like to get photos of builds that others are doing with these cheap leaf drives. we have plans to put one in a ski boat ,and a two motor 4wheel drive vehicle. up next will be my MAzda Miata. I am working on mating the motor to the transmission now. Clutch or no clutch is my question .thunderstruck motors
thanks Brian
