Russ's (99ex22) 4406 Swap Thread

[99ex22]

I'm getting ready to start gathering parts for my 4406 swap and I came across this on ebay...http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ford-BorgWarner-4406-Transfer-Case-Running-Take-Out_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem5639c766e1QQitemZ370336556769QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fgo go wagonQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories
Only problem is that I don't know if there is a way to tell if it's a electric or manual. It's out of a 1999 F-150. I know some of them were electric. Can anyone help me out?

Thanks,

-Russ

Since its on Fleabay, why not ask the seller the same question?
Are you familiar with LKQ Foster Auto Parts in Portland OR?
I went on www.car-part.com and found that they have 2 Manual Shift BW4406 transfercases for $150.24 each (one of them only has 67K miles!), which seems to be a killer deal. I don't know how far of a drive that is for you but for that price, it might be worth the drive.
(Stock # S70987 has 67K, Stock # F82964 has 170K)

Alright! I got her! She's coming monday afternoon. 150.00 plus 50.00 core charge for the 67K one Im pretty excited about this!

 

[410Fortune]

great price!!!

 

[99ex22]

Yeah I pretty much stole it. Thanks to my pos mounty for finding it! It will probably be another month or so before I have all of the parts for it.

1" body lift pucks are on there way! If anyone is looking for some you can find them here.....http://www.mountainoffroad.com/_e/Body_Lift_Kits/product/BP225X1/BP225X1_Individual_Pucks_Universal_Fit.htm

 

[99ex22]

Isn't She Pretty???

 

[410Fortune]

nice nice, I have not seen that scatter shield before....

 

[99ex22]

Yeah I was wondering about that. What purpose does that serve?

 

[99ex22]

I found my drive shafts for 75.00 a piece from a local wrecking yard. Ill probably pick those up Thursday. No luck on the linkage though. I called just about everywhere except for ford of course. One place did have a 1999 f-150 with a manual t-case.

If I were to get the linkage out of the 150 would I have to remove the T-Case?

 

[Sbyrne97]

probably not. All you have to do is unbolt the linkage from the tcase and then find pull it through the floor of the f-150

 

[99ex22]

hmmm Ill have to give that a shot this weekend. Thanks!

I'm going to be installing these bad boys tonight at my work...

They're made out of 6061-T6 aluminum rather than the nylon stuff the P.A ones are made out of and they seem a little smaller in diameter so I'm hoping they wont make any noise....

Do you have to do any other mods to your truck like the stearing column and radiator if you put those in?

 

[99ex22]

nope everything stays in the stock location.

 

[99ex22]

1" body lift in progress...

1" body lift done...

next to my coworkers 1st gen...

It took us about 5 hours to complete. we had to tilt the radiator slightly at an angle to keep the fan from hitting, drill out the mounts directly behind the rear seats and use 5 1/2" bolts, drill out the very front mounts and use 5 1/2" bolts and that was it!...went pretty smooth and now she's ready for the 4406

 

[99ex22]

everything is good and to my surprise the pucks don't make any noise at all.
