Cant find what i need

Post by olrosie »

I know there is 100 topics on here about 2x4 to 4x4 conv. But what i need to know is will the raideus armsoff the 4x4 bolt up to my frame, or will my raideus arms bolt to the 4x4 axle? And i have the t-85 3spd with r-11 overdrive, can i use it with a devorced transfer? Any help would be greatl app. :help: :help: :?

Any thing is possible just depends on skill and patience. Some people call AAA to change a tire, others rebuild leaky carbs on the side of a interstate and don`t flinch. Remember mid 70`s Pathfinder vans used the raduis arm 4x4 conversion so it can be done.

The two wheel drive radius arms will not bolt to the 4x4 axle. I think the radius arm brackets sit farther forward on the two wheel drive frames also.

You'd need either all the brackets from a 4x4 or fab them. Would also need to box in the frame. Steering boxes are different. Could find a 4x4 frame much cheaper.
