Re: [Amc-list] 4x4 to 2x4 trans conversion



Yes, You need to change the tail and output.
Need some clean space and assorted tools to pull the swap off.
Somewhere I saw mention the Turbo 400 could be swapped with just the outer tailhousing change over.
  I do not believe this is true, wanted to point it out incase you ran across it!
If your not hammering on the car and just plan it as a dirver andy of the 900 series trans will work.
  80 up to be sure you get a lockup model, but, beware, many or the lockups have been disabled in hill country!
There was a spring and piston servo that controlled lockup. Remove the spring and replace with a stack of washers dissables the locak up IIRC. We did TONS of them! The lockup would shudder at about 45mph and in the hilly terain around here it was the customers perference they be done away with!
