will a newer BW-1354 bolt right up and work where a 4405 was?

thats the question, i might be gettin a 1354 out of 2001 ranger, and it has the option for 2wd so no more of this control trac BS. but im not gunna need the comp from the ranger right? and also can i just leave my "brown wire" disconnected if it will work.

The swap from the 4405 to the 1354 electric shift is probably going to be hell for you. It will be much, much easier to do the 1354 manual TC swap. You're gonna need the 4x4 control computer and the wiring harness that goes to your 4x4 switch, and the the wiring harness that goes from the computer to the transfer case. The existing wires will not work. Then you need to figure out how make the 4x4 lights stop flashing because the GEM will throw a code because it won't be hooked up the transfer case. Good luck.

TarHeel you must try the brown wire mod first. It stops the control trac BS, it even gives you 2x4 Low like an atlas 2 can. Pretty nice IMHO
