Been following ^this^ thread for the swap.

It says that the old linkage will be fine if the trans side bracket is flipped. For some reason it appears that this isn't the case with my setup...or I could just be doing something wrong/missing something obvious.

Could anyone shed some light on this? Maybe post a pic of what they did? Or explain IN GREAT DETAIL what needs to be done?

After all the time, money, etc to rebuild the trans and put it in, it would REALLY suck to not have 4wd...

 

Post a picture of yours?

I would just trash the stock setup and use a cable or solid linkage..

Here's what I did with mine when I raised the t case.

No issues now.

 

I'm not familiar with cable or solid linkages.

Would you happen to have any resources/info on those? I'm going to hit up google as soon as I post this...

 

I can get more info on them tonight

 

Yeah, my garbage at&t network isn't running google well. I checked 2 hits, and got fed up with the phone failing to load stuff.

It should be real simple as it just needs to rotate...I've just never messed with this at all. :/

 

At&t blooooooooows. And I too would like to know about cable linkages. Are they expensive?

 

Novak sells a nice one. But they can be built cheaper

 

Ge Ho Dee, just a boneheaded side note. Since my mounts are thrashed and "my stuff" (engine/trans), seems pretty comfortable maybe 3/4 of an inch forward of where it belongs, I have some "4 Low" issues, pops out sometimes. I figure you are fine, just wanted to mention shot mounts can cause issues. When I look at my drivers side engine mount, it's not centered.
