i just baut a 85
CJ7 with a
Dauntless Buick 225 V6 im in iraq rite now sow i cant get up and personal with it. i was wondering what isa good
Transmission /xfer case for this, keeping the ps front diff and not doing a flip on the xfer case if there is some thing that will bolt rite up thanx if this is in the wrong place i apologise im new to this stuff
I have to agree a bit about the 85
do you mean 65?
if it is a 65 with a 225 v6 you have a jewel of an engine, 155 hp with 225 pounds of torque, the
Dauntless Buick 225 V6 v6 is what legends are made of
but, it it is a 65 through 67 it has a
T-86 trsnny, not the best, you have a few options, first buy a t 90 and have the guts put in the
T-86 case, or find a
T-14 ,change the input gear on the tcase and it bolts right on.
if it is a 65 through 71 with a v6 it has a
T-18 Transfer Case , good t case , accepts a warn
Overdrive and or a pto unit, but both axles will be offset,
front will either be a d25 or d27, swap that to a d 30, rear will be a
Dana 44 , either tapered or flanged, flanged units are great but no one is makeing new shafts for it, the rear is a bit weak unless you do a full floating axle kit to it. A guy in Washington state makes a great kit for this, making the axle almost bullet proof.
now if it is a 85, I have no clue as to why a v6 is in there, would be a good engine, most probably a 231. and as far as what tranny he swapped in or what
Transfer Case , what axles or even what seats I have no clue
