i have a 89 pioneer 2wd which i am in the process of gathering all parts to convert it to 4x4. i think the tranny is a ax-15 with the 2wd piece attached. instead of switching the entire tranny assembly for the ax-15/np231 setup i have (my ttanny has less miles and a new clutch) can't the transfercase just bolt up to my tranny now?

nice :D mines an 89, i paid $2000(CND) 2wd, SWB, 179,000km, i only have surface rust spots on mine planning a 4x4 conversion with SOA (5.5 inches of lifti think) can't wait to see you finished product :cheers:

mines like that too :D its also red hahaha

I'm another 17 year old Canadian converting to 4X4:D 2wd in this country is just dumb! Hey MJCANADIAN, got any pics of your MJ?

i already have the 31's on my truck....i just want to get some more space in between the front fender and tire (less than 2 1/2") ill keep looking around for what i want i guess....maybe just leave this for my project truck and finance a new mini...hahha

well 3.5" sounds perfect i think. well ive decided to go against my dad and use the add-a-leaf. anybody use the tuff country kit? http://www.4x4wire.com/jeep/projects/co ... uspension/ i found a donor MJ for my project :D and ill probably just sell the axles i bought. only paid $25 for them both...

Mine isnt till june 29th.....lucky.

i personally wanted 3-4" of lift with 31"s and to convert to 4x4. my dad refuses to use the add-a-leaf lift because he hates it (to stiff). if i do the axle over with the dana 35 how much lift than? and would a need a long arm kit? I really don't want 6". Thats it with the 31/10.50's

k ill start over haha. I bought 2 axles (front and back) from a 96 cherokee. I'm putting them in my truck to convert it to 4x4. after lifting the rear however much it will be after putting the 8 .25 in, than want to even out the front so its about the same. how would i go about doing this?

i hauled a 16" aluminum jet boat (1200lbs wet) and i wished i would have had trailer brakes

i think your right :cheers: thanks to all for the help :bowdown: 8) and i have the same axle except its the front......just longer springs and shocks to make it work? I'm converting to 4WD....sick of getting stuck on flat ground......stupid albera weather :roll:

also i don't currently have a lift....its stock. ill measure the axles tonight.

does it make a difference that my truck is 2WD? and also if i put the 8 .25 in the leaf springs are already on top of the axle.....which would lift the read 3".....right?

so what can be done to solve this problem? i can't afford a new driveshaft :(

will a chrysler 8 1/4 (from 96 cheroke) work with the driveshaft from my 89 pioneer with dana 35? Great forum btw :cheers: Cheers, Braden
