any drivers out there who have swapped the 3-speed standard for an AOD? i tried going thru as much of YT and sites like wildhorses 4x4 and I still have questions. I am ordering the AOD, torque converter, a shift lever package, a TV cable, a kick-down device, an adapter for the Dana 20, and a new cross member. I have a local guy building me two new driveshafts.
My questions I couldn't see answered in all of my research are these:
1. how do i determine if the flywheel needs to be changed? if yes, then does the starter need to be changed? and how do u count the teeth?
2. most of the AOD's i'm seeing for sale are 2WD. Can i simply remove the tailstock from the 2WD AOD, bolt on the Dana 20 converter and proceed to install? or is something else required.
3. i see some Bronco's have the new AOD shifter on the drivers side of the existing transfer case shifter? but there is more room on the passenger side for a new shifter? how does that all come together?
if anyome doesn't mid typin in a few lines here to set me straight i'd be grateful. thank you - joe
