Wow, you’re going all out. Why the new trans?

 

2wd and 4wd have different tail shafts on the transmissions and you can’t bolt a transfer case to a 2wd transmission. Easiest to just swap the transmission out.

 

I usually use the condenser coil cleaner on my HVAC unit, it should be fine to run through the trucks as well I’d assume? As long as it’s flushed with enough water

 

I thought he was already 4x4. I guess that’s my confusion!

 

And it’s out. 4-5 hours of banging pulling cussing and we didn't even have to break anything but maybe one of my knuckles. But we got it out it. New one ready to go.

 

Magic is happening

 

Hot damn!

 

It’s official I’m 4wd and it works. We had one hell of a scare but figured it out. Tomorrow alignment, exhaust and trans drain and fill do we know the right amount of fluid is in it. Gotta order a shift boot for the fj stick too. @Aardvark13 you got anything from the part out lol.

 

Nice! This makes me feel like I waisted my weekend haha

 

Dude you had a hell of a weekend!
Where did your 4wd shifter end up? In the coin tray next to the trans shifter? I don’t think what I’m pulling out is gonna work as it’ll be for the twin stick Atlas Tc. It’s more square anyway, rather than rectangular and skinny.

 

Yes sir. And works like a dream. I figured one out of the fj wouldn’t work there but wanted to see.ill post up some pics after I get back from the various shops

 

That was a marathon weekend of wrenching!

 

Right? I setup a crawler course in my living room and watched Tiger King so I'm in the same boat.

 

Rewired a trailer and decked it. Also cleaned pulled my radiator and cleaned it. That was it haha

 

Did Moab get cancelled?

 

Cancelled

 

Boo

 

Agreed. Thinking a trip south or south dakota black hills... whichever @Snowy can make

 

Right now Flat Nasty in June is on the calendar and I'd love to go south.
