90 4x4 700R4 went out!
 

My brothers 90 700R4 4x4 tranny went out last week. I found a few 2wd 700r4s. Would the output shaft and transfer adapter just swap over from the 4x4 to the 2wd version? Easy as unbolting one and bolting the other up? I have heard it is that easy. What year of 2wd tranny should it be if so? thanks in advance!

The trans has to completly come apart for the output shaft swap

There is a trans. shop in Kansas City that rebuilds them at a real reasonable price & has good quality. I don,t know if you want to bring it that far.

Well he has the truck in oregon so that might be a bit far! It is going to take him about 1500.00 for a shop to take it out and rebuild it. He does not have that money and i am not loaning it to him! ( making him grow up!) So i offered the used alternative. he could save 1000.00 by buying a used one and installing it himself. It just will not last as long. But i do not thnk he plans on keeping it long. I guess the hunt continues for a 4x4 tranny.
