Starbuck75 Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Hey guys I have a 2wd long box 4.0 with the poopy peugot 5 spd, I want to convert to 4wd , I have a donor 89 4x4 4.0l with the crappy tranny as well. Just wondering if the trans case from the 4x4 will bolt onto the 2wd?
Eagle Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Not easily. A 2WD transmission has an output shaft and tailshaft housing to accept the slip yoke from the driveshaft. The tranny that mates with a transfer case for 4WD doesn't have the tailshaft or the tailshaft housing, it has a much shorter output shaft that mates to the transfer case, and a flange on the tranny case for the transfer case to bolt onto. All you need to do is swap over the transmission and transfer case from the donor XJ in tact. Don't even take them apart.
nitroxsteve Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 Eagle is correct swap the trans and t-case together unless the 4x4 trans has something wrong with it.
