    The One Stop 700R4 Swap M1009

    Step 11 Plug in the transfer case 4x4 indicator plug on the top of the np208. This is the only electrical connection needed for a pre 1986 700r4 swap. Pic 1 Step 12 If you have a warranty on your 700r4, I recommend having the transmission shop install the tv cable bracket, tv cable rod, tv...

    6.2 and 6.5 engine questions

    Agreed! The p400 components are indeed better! So far, I have not seen any documentation on any P400 blocks cracking or heads cracking. I also have not seen any documation of an older block, that has been crack proofed to have actually cracked. That is why I made the comparison. Love the motor...

    6.2 and 6.5 engine questions

    So both the 6.2 and 6.5 is “Knocking”, I would try and figure out what the knocking noise is before you go crazy on spending huge amounts of money. Could be something simple, like a bad injector, lifter or ip timing could be off. Steel crank is not needed. Waste of money. Crank failure is cause...

    Need Cold Advance Switch

    Yeah… if you calculate the cost of the switch, coolant lost, mess made, labor etc… I might just bypass this bad boy! I got plenty of room on the dash for more switches!

    Step 10 Install front and rear driveshafts. Pic 1-2 As you can see in pics 3-4 you will not need to shorten or lengthen the driveshafts. The driveshaft angles are exactly the same as it was with the Th400/np208

    Drain coolant Qs

    Using gravity, it is impossible to fully flush out a 6.2 or 6.5 motor of its coolant and contaminants. The design of the coolant passages prevents this. Hence the common overheating problem. You have to force flush it with pressure by creating an adapter of some sort to hook up to the motor...

    The One Stop 700R4 Swap M1009

    Step 7 Put a generous bead of Optimum Black on the adapter. If you prefer to use the gasket, that is an option as well. Pic 1 Lift up the freshly rebuilt Transfer case and put it part way on the shaft. Let it hang. Clean the 6x9/16” bolt threads and put on thread lock. Clock the Transfer case...

    The One Stop 700R4 Swap M1009

    Step #6 Install the Th400 Crossmember. The Th400 Crossmember with the Long 700r4 Adapter is a direct bolt on! No drilling into the frame is required! Because it is a direct bolt on, you will also NOT NEED to shorten or lengthen the driveshafts! Why? The Th400’s length from bell housing to...
