CoolThats good to know. Im not sure whats on mine. Ive got a small S type bracket on the drivers side held in with 2 bolts from the top of the frame. If Ive got tofab something thats fine tho. I get a chance this afternoon Ill take some pictures and post them up. Maybe that will help decipher...
Mine too i thinkI Think Ive got one on this 85 frame too. Bolts to the upper portion of the rail with 2 bolts? Right about where the trans mount is just higher up?
ResearchI guess I need to research things further. The trans and transfer case Im looking at came out of a 79 250. I wasnt sure if those were gonna work with my front axle. Like I said Im a rookie when it comes to this. Ive restored Mustangs for the past 18 years lol. Whats the difference...
Well....I do have my 300 I6 yet in the 81 body. But am curious if the transfer case drive shaft will line up with the 85s axle or should be looking at newer and not older for the drive line?
IckSounds like I just need to find a 4x4 setup then. I found a 351M for $100 running and have seen several 78 and 79 trans and transfer cases around. Those should bolt no issues or minor fabrication on my 85 frame then?
HmmmI figured it would be a little more in depth than just a mere bell housing change. All info I can get would be awesome. I could use the trans in another setup if thats the case
