ok figured out how to put it in 4wd mode and back into 2wd mode!!!!! just in case the manual locking hubs crap out i ordered WARN premium hubs for $80 . now i just need to get the exhaust fixed and get it inspected. i love this truck https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

are you talking about the 3rd or 2nd gen

You must be talikin bout your new K5..

i'm talking about my 86 blazer K5 https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/boink.gif

I have visions of a blown transfer case in your future, lol

:squint: that's what I mean Mr. Vosko

actually 4WD works awesome. now that i figured it all out..... don't be jealous rob. i'll run over your vert https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

you posted like 10 seconds before me.... oops :bigthumg:

I had 4 wheel drive while you were still in diapers, lol.

Did you try to use 4 wheel low yet?



I have a cast iron 4 speed and transfer case waiting to go in my Jeep if the transmission ever goes again but I dont think that will happen being as the guys did a good job rebuilding my 727 thats in there now.

umm. haven't needed 4 wheel low yet. 4wd high has been great. this thing has big off road tires on it right now. 4 wheel low is only for like https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png



i haven't spent a dime on it and runs better than my parents old van LOL

That thing will outlast your 7, everything around it might break, but it will keep running

jay *turbovr6* said this is quite possibly the only thing even you cannot break :bigthumg:

Are you running the TF 727 to the Dana 300?

it looks like this truck will last a long time. if it doesn't oh well... a whopping $580 spent https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/boink.gif

but this is u were talking about, JK

The 79 I had converted from a Quadratrac to a TH-400 with a Dana 20, the Dana 20 was a bastard sometimes to get into 4 low.



My dana 300 has never been an issue.

Are you running the TF 727 to the Dana 300?[/quote]

I have to be honest, i have no idea what kind of transfer case is in there now, I got a freshly rebuilt cast iron 4speed and transfer case when someone was moving and didnt want to take it with them, the thing weighs as much as a engine, lol



My jeep originally came with a 6cyl so now the only thing original in it are the front and rear.

what year is it? 86?

82 Laredo model, factory wide tires, wheel flares, you can see part of it in the post i made yesterday about BRRR SNOW

Umm, no, I was just guessing since the TF 727 was only avail from 81 to 86. It's a Dana 300 if it's stock.

whats the "umm no" part?

See, if you'd just get a Subaru (preferably the WRX), you wouldn't have to worry about manual locking hubs! Of course, doing anything to the engine is quite a task.

did they get wrxs in the states

yes we have WRX's those are fun cars!!

i really have no idea what this meant. i guess i put this in the wrong place
