I know that you want to avoid DII 2001-2003, no CDL nipple. I think there is a quiet version due to the cut of the gears, no idea when that came in though.

JohnK said:I may be doing this conversion in the future and I have a few questions:
Which donor vehicles are the most suitable for transferring a LT230 to a 95 RRC?
What should one look for and/or check when buying a used LT230?
Do some whine more than others? If so, is it from wear, bad bearings or the cut of the gears?
I've read about a cross-drilled input shaft - what is the benefit of it?
I've read that the DI Auto LT230s have 1.2 high and 3.321 low ratios - what are the ratios of the Borg-Warners in the RRCs?
Thanks.

I connected the Trans shifter cable and positioned the shifter in place but didn't connect the guide block so that I could pull it out as I needed to adjust the TC shifter linkage yet still be able to drive around, etc. while I adjusted the TC linkage.

I'm tempted though to take the whole thing back out, re-mock-up the t-case with the linkage in the correct orientation and post those photos again.
I'll be remembered for that, and that only, long after I'm gone.
Cambo said:I remember reading that you need to get one of the transfer case mounts but can't remember if it was driver or passenger side? Anyone?
Cambo said:Ok, working slowly on this but making progress. The LT is out and now I want to swap the new seals. I see the one seal at the connection area to the tranny, but where is the other one?
