Question Drivetrain: s4 vs. s5

My s5 drivetrain is shot, but I have a s4 drivetrain lying around; any reason it won't work on the s5? Both N/A.

Thanks . . .

Well, they're both GXLs, so the s4 has LSD while the s5 does not (according to the sticky at the top of the forum). So, will it matter if I put the s4's drivetrain (with LSD) in the s5?

Thanks, again.

The crossmember on the S5 is going to be different from the one on the S4. Other than that, since they are both N/A cars, it is pretty much plug and play.

Nope, should be a direct swap.
