Hello, I've been lurking here for along time gathering information getting ready to start my build-up so first off thank you pirate 4x4 for the wealth of info here. (Plus I didn't want to be asking a bunch of noob questions you guys can be brutal) anyway I've come across a TBI 350 with harness and a 700r4. I would like to sell off the 700r4 and and go with a manual for my swap. I'm probably going to look for a sm465 or similar GM tranny. what would be the easiest for this swap? what other pieces should I be looking for to complete this swap? I'm probably going to use the AA saddle mount for motor mounts. I remeber ready somewhere about using the back and internals of a jeep 231 t-case with the chevy 231 case any info on this? Sorry for all the questions and thank you in advance for any info:homer:
*edit- also how about axles, I have access to free D60s from an 80s Dodge one ton, but its the wrong side drop? would it be worth it to find a t-case with the right drop to use these? how about Waggy 44s?
