G52 xfer to newer forward shift w56?
« on: Jul 14, 2004, 05:30:14 PM »
Here's my dilema...I have a w56 and top shift in the runner and love it.  In the PU, I have a g52, forward shift crawl box and a top shift case adapter via a mc07.  I have another complete forward shift tcase as well as all the remnants from the donor forward shift case I used from my crawl box, including the xfer case adapter which houses both shifters.  I want to replace the g52 in the PU with a w56.  It seems the forward shift w56's like WTs are more plentiful.  Will they bolt up to the forward shifting case off of a g52 with no problems??  I have a line on a w56 that i want to trade a 4.30 complete 3rd for, but its the top shift type that would work easier in the runner.  I guess I could switch my crawl box to a top shift, but I am looking at $ and time at this point.  Plus I'm a lazy ass  :_oops:  Any input or info on this??

the shift rails are longer on one of the transmissions, i can't remember which(late w56 vs g52).  however, you can swap them farily easily
