i'm curious. i have a 2wd w59 in my 98 4runner. can i just take off the tail end of the transmission and add a transfercase instead of having to get a 4x4 tranny off a donor truck? this been done before?
Yes I believe if you change the output shaft to a 4x4 output shaft of the same engine you can mate the transfercase to it...Showstop is the guru with this stuff and I think I may have some links I will edit this if I find them.
That is correct. The output shaft on a 2WD W59 transmission is different then a 4WD W59 transmission. Yes you can buy the part and do the swap, but I don't see how it would be worth the time or money to go that route.
