so the gear sets are for all the gears?? for $100?
No, Im sorry, just for the 5th gear pieces.... We've got alot of these 5th gear G-series parts in stock but Marlin uses them for his rebuilds. Since you got your trans for $30 maybe you could just find another trans complete for under $100 and have alot of spare parts that way
ill do a thread on it, cause i couldnt find anything on anyone doing it except them say they did it and it was easy.
Good we need this! Alot of people do ask about it and I only remember one person who posted pictures of closing the parking brake circuit and that the swap was pretty easy. Not much details so if you do that it would rock
will the t/case from the auto tranny in my 86 be a forward or top shift?(i would go and take a look, but the truck its about 800 miles away). if it is a forward shift will it be the same as the one that is currently connected to my 84 G54 tranny? and if its the top shift, will i be able to do a cawler set up on it in the future without too much trouble?
Well actually all 4cylinder automatics this side of '96 used a nondivorcible transmission+transfercase combo where the transfercase pieces are partially installed into the auto transmission housing and are one within each other. Futhure more, its a chain drive style transfercase so it cant be used for anything other than boat anchoring.
Since your G54 has the stock forward shifting t/case with it, that's great. Keep that where it is and turn it into the Crawl Box, and then find a top shifting style ('79-'83 & '85-'88 EFI non-turbo) tcase to use behind the
adapter as your actual transfercase that will get shafted (drivelines).
So here's your setup if you wanna go duals:
G54 > forward shifting t/case >
adapter plate > top shifting t/case
