so basically what your saying is get the 4 cylinder tranny and it will involve noting more that geting a supra bell housing and and bolting everything up. It almost sounds too easy, i was very comcerned about the driveshafts. I wasnt sure if the lengths would work out or even if the flanges were the same. I found a trans and transfer in a local yard i can grab, its an 87 would that be the gear driven tranfer case you stated would work? Once i conquer this tranny problem i should have everything. I have an engine, all the stuff under the hood, and the ecu and harness plus i might have a wrecked 88 for a few hundred bucks this week. That should be plenty of parts plus a few spares. I just want to have everything before i pull the v6 out. Such a shame i only rebuilt that v6 a year and a half ago.
