2wd to 4wd conversion
I have a 1985 f150 shortbed/stepside that it currently a 2wd truck (it is a 5.8l carbureted engine) but i am looking into doing the 4wd conversion. Would i be able to just slap a transfer case on the current transmision or would i meed to replace the transmission with another?

There are a couple threads started by miataman where he did just what you are talking about. Might check them out.

theres an adapter that you will need specific to the transmission/tcase, you will need to find out if you will need a new output shaft from the transmission. if you do, it may be easier to pull a whole tranny/tcase unit from a donor.
