- 98 Eddy Bauer
I recently purchased a 2WD 98 Eddy Bauer with 5.0L V8 with a 4R70W automatic transmission. I've done some research that leads me to believe that all of the 4WD components will bolt up. I have a 98 4R70W from a 4WD that I can use the tail housing and output shaft from. I am a mechanic and am capable of doing the work. My questions are related to the PMC interface and if I even need to interface to it. First: if I use a BW 4404 AWD transfercase, are there any electrical interface considerations. If I use an electronic shift transfer case, are the cables and connectors in place or can they be run from the donor vehicle? Will the computer have to be changed out? Are there other sensors (steering angle, vehicle speed, etc) that have to be considered?
This vehicle is going to be used onroad to pull a camper and very light trail riding. How much of a MPG penalty do you pay with the AWD version.
Thanks for all your help. Dave...
