- 1986 cj7 258, t-176 4-speed, d-300, moser one piece axle in back in amc 20,G2 4.10 gears front and back, detroit truetac front and back,G2 4340 chromoly front axles in a d-30, 4" rough country lift, 33" tires
A T-4 and v8 is a bomb waiting to happen. Incommando I don't know anything about nv4500 I assume it wouldn't need an adapter to mate up to the 350? Just looking for knowelege.

RIP Mike, we'll all miss you
I know a guy that has a T-18 -1B set up for a Chevy engine, should be ready to attach to your bellhousing and Dana 20 Transfer Case .
That would be almost the ultimate (cheap) way to go for a manual Transmission .
He lives in Utah, so it wouldn't be a huge relocation problem.

35x12.5x15 MTRs;
YJ 4 inch Skyjacker lift w/ Bilsteins;
rebuilt AMC 360, Patriot Headers, Holley Truck Avenger 670 CFM, Edelbrock Performer Intake, Flexalite Electric Fan; Griffin Aluminum Radiator, Dual Flowmaster Delta Flow 40s;
Dana 30 4.10s w/ Detroit Truetrac;
Dana 60-2 Narrowed, 11 inch Ford Drum Brakes, 4.10s Power-Lok LSD; T-176; Dana 300 LoMax 4:1 Twin-Stick; Navajo Power Brake Booster
A T-4 was the weakest Transmission available. That thing will disintegrate fairly quickly with a V8.

I looked at Craigslist and found a couple nv 4500 for around 4-6 hundred
