I read Nutter's article on combining a D18 and Bronc D20 for 2.46 low in a Jeep d20.

My problem is the opposite - I have a line on a Bronc D20, but no D18.

Can I just swap the whole geartrain into the Jeep D20? Will my spare Jeep D20 outputs still work?

Do I need to make sure it is a J or T shift EB D20, or is any 2.46 low EB D20 ok?

Thanks

The shifters are just the external shifters, the internals are the same.

I have always heard that the T-Shift 20s are the 2.46 ones and the J-Shifts are the 2.34s.

I have a T-Shift 20 for sale. :D

I have a T-Shift 20 for sale.

yup Bill you can but you have to have to have all of the bronco guts. and you may have to grind your case some

I sent you an email.

Charly,

well, the deal is supposed to go something like this: Chad swaps Brett 2 T-cases and m'bee some other junk for the front D60...which means Brett will want the guts of the D60 and I have the shafts, carrier, and 4.56 gears so I give them back to Chad and Chad gives me a 2.46 Bronc D20 in return. At least that's how I *think* it's supposed to work!

ItsaCJ6 - any idea on the tail shafts / housings. It'ss be a shame to go from 2 spares to zero :(

I've started down this path, but just haven't finished the swap.

Should be the same as the Dana 18 swap, except you have to cut and splice the top-half of the Bronco shift-fork to the bottom half of the Scout/Jeep shift-fork, to adapt to the Scout/Jeep shift-rail.

Otherwise, it should be just like a Dana 18 gear swap, except you only need 2 cases, not 3.

I had a write-up about this conversion that got me to thinking about it.
