I just wanted to thank everybody on this board for their input on this project. Special thanks to Kevin. Not too many people volunteer their "pride and joy" for these types of projects. Also Thanks to Rick. If it was not for Rick, this project probably would not have happened. The Atlas for...

I'm not the owner or "the boss", My title is Sales Director. I usually do not get involved in product development; however, one day I decided to post a simple question on this board. I would like to thank all of you who offered input to this project. You should all stand up and take a bow...

We tested your rig on the rock garden after you left. First we picked up a couple of cases of budweiser. Sorry I broke a few things, but that JBweld fixes broken stuff good! Super glue stops cracks in glass! Sorry I puked on your dashboard and my dog pissed on your seats. Other than that...

first help!! 1 Are all 4.0 explorers electric shift for the transfer case? Why? We may need to make linkage brackets for manual shift t-cases 2. I'm concerned about lengths, The a4ld and Mazda are both around 29" in length. Any other trans used with THE 4.0 that maybe shorter...

Here is an update. As posted earlier, Diff Wack Daddy (DWD) dropped off his explorer. We discussed several issues: 1. I talked with DWD concerning the build up of his 700r4 transmission. Keep in mind, The aftermarket transmission companies have been refining this transmission for over 20...

well, sadly this thread is destined to be closed. It sounds like the bolt patterns are too large on the aod for the smaller 4.0 bolt pattern. I appologize for wishfull thinking. We are not giving up, we are working on a different option

I think that I should correct exactly who should volunteer for a prototpe. This should be an experienced business who deals with the explorer and the 4.0 motor rather than an "individual or two" as I stated earlier. I'm not saying here's the adapters, now you figure it out. I'm saying this...

Brett, you are right. we have many issues to solve before a product can be released. The issues I have been bringing up are just the basics. If I was to guess on a time period for a 4.0 adapter, I would put the earliest prototype at 2-4 months. I talked with Baumann engineering today and...

Hi guys, I decided to drive south to check out support mounts for you guys today. when I look back at this event, I laugh, but it truely did suck. I hope you enjoy my agony. this is the email I sent my sister:> Hi Sis, (I'll send you the newspaper article on this, if it makes the paper. I'm...

brian, I'm glad the wc t5 conversion worked well for you; unfortunately, the 4wd version of this transmission are no longer available for AA to purchase. we still offer kits for converting a mustang wc t-5 version to t-case, but this is quite costly due to the 5th gear replacement and shifter...

yes an nv4500 will be included in our plans, but most mazda/explorer wanting nv4500 have v8 power. Atlas is the only way from there. that is a tall tranny, body lift? I would say yes

I have two questions 1: how available is 2.9 bellhousing off a mid 80's ranger? 2: external slave or is internal o.k.? 3. external slave interference with exhaust,

I thought I would start a new thread, my previous thread was getting long. It was a great thread with alot of good suggestions and info. Thank you all for your input. Well it is obvious the AOD/AODE is the choice based on your opinions. We have decided to start R&D on an adapter to mate the...

well it is obvious the AOD/AODE is the choice based on your opinions. We have decided to start R&D on an adapter to mate the 4.0 block to the AOD. I want to speed up our R&D, I could use some more help to speed this along. Here is a concern, The AOD was only used with the larger 164 tooth...

hi guys, Thank you for all your comments. I want to give an extra thanks to Rick, Driven Auto parts, diff whack daddy, and all the other individuals who offered so much! We were looking at the block today and just based on the bolt pattern, we have many concerns. This is where I need to stop...

wow, You guys are great! thank you all for your opinions. Many members suggested aod and t5. I would like to know if a trans like 700r4 and nv3550 as a tranny choice also?

I would like to know, problem here? should AA offer something? Vic Ext 530
