argyll_eng Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I currently have an 87, Automatic, 2WD Comanche, I purchased a front axle and transfercase from a 91 4WD Cherokee. My question is will the transfer case work with my transmission or will i have to get a transmission out of a 4WD to make the transmission work, the Cherokee that I got the xfer case from was an automatic with an AWD4 tranny. Any information would help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 You will need a 4wd transmission. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geonovast Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 You made sure the gear ratios of the front and rear axles match correct? Checklist of parts is basically: Dana 30 with gear ration matching your rear axle Front driveshaft appropriate to which engine/transmission you have 4wd transmission Transfer case T-case shift linkages, gate and bezel 4wd rear shaft or cut down your 2wd shaft. No, an XJ rear will not work. You may need a longer speedometer cable It's really a very easy swap, it's all bolt-on and the only modifications you'll really need to do is drill 4 small holes for a T-case linkage bracket. The hole for the 4wd shifter is already there, just with a plate bolted over it. That should cover the basics. Any specific questions, just ask.
