hey all,
i know its been a while. i now have the right tcase. i got it from greenleaf of tallahassee and it has a one year or 12,000 mile guarantee ($500.) i got a remanufactured tranny for $1200 fromthe same place and it has a 24,000 mile warranty. i pulled the tranny last week in anticipation of getting my new tranny on friday of course they shipped it to some place in Pennsylvania.
the lights on the dash will work fine with the old system torn out. on my 95 since i do not have manual hubs i will have to flip the electronic switch to activate the front end then shift into 4wd with the manual shift tcase. i am willing to do the extra step for the peace of mind and performance of the new tcase.
on another note: anybody swapping their own tranny? i got plenty of info as im putting mine in by myself. the hardest part is usually getting it out. but it was not that bad. i got it out by myself in about 6 hours. the hardest part was unbolting the torque converter. anyway, anybody feel free to drop my a line about tranny swap. i might not be anything more than an encouragement but will be glad to help.
i hope to be wheeling this weekend.
later,
