Probably going to buy a t case tonight.. It includes the case and linkage and the sensor, no wiring. Will I need anything else specifically for the t case?

ALSO, It'll be going in with a aw4, it came out of one with an ax15. Does that make a difference??

Depends that year the aw4 is,If its a 1991 and newer it will if its older then 1990 then it won't.And the aw4 is a 4x4 trans not a 2wd one right?

JPXJMOAB

aw4 is 2wd as well. I currently have one in it

andrewmp6

Well you need a 4x4 trans,Its cheaper to buy a 4x4 one then have the tail housing on a 2wd one change over to a 4x4 one.

I know, I'm going to buy a whole parts truck..... Once I can find one ....

Find a beater (Full XJ) of a compatible model year to use as a donor, unless you have the t case, trans, and front axle already.
I picked one up for $700, pulled everything I wanted, sold the motor for 350, sold a few other items for 100, gave a buddy the seats, and scrapped the rest for 250. Basically a free 4x4 conversion. If you have the means and the time to find the right donor, it makes everything easier.

Good, beat me to it. Check every source out there. You'll find one soon enough.

JPXJMOAB

don't know where else to check, all the JY remove drivetrain parts here in MN and hasn't been a listing on CL in like 2 years.

Only reason I bought this Jeep was because it was so cheap! I only paid $800 for it.. Needs floors but PO was honest and told me everything wrong! Currently working on floors, it's well worth the money IMO. I can't wait to convert it. PO said he was gonna concert it but didn't have the time.

Then why buy a transfer case only? Save your money.

^X2^ Total waste!


In your case drive yours the way it is and look for a decent 4wd XJ ready to go while your saving your money for one. I know that sounds harsh but you will come out money and time ahead going that route.


It sounds like your not even sure what parts you even need for this project much less the knowledge to assemble and complete the project, therefore the need to buy what you need in the beginning.


JMHO

I know the knowledge of the parts and what I need to do. That's not a problem. Only reason I almost bought the case was because it was fully rebuilt

I did a 4x4 swap also its a process and without a donor XJ it would be a huge task to find things. While your at it save your self the trouble and by the simplified boost works tcase linkage or I think advanced adapters has one too. I wish I had and will be this summer.

JPXJMOAB

any specific reason to do this??
