2.9 xr4x4,anyone know how easy to convert to 2 wheel drive?whats needed etc?cheers!

 

To start the list off;

2wd front hubs
2wd gearbox
Probably 2wd propshaft
Exhaust might need tweaking

I'm sure someone with more idea will add to the list (or correct me!)

 

sump
gearbox
prop
gearbox mount

everything else can stay as it is if you ditch the driveshafts and prop you won't need to change anything else

if you DO decide to go with the 2wd stuff you'll need to change the hubs and struats and arb and crossmember and steering rack and intermidiate shaft too, lots of work when you can grab a granny sump and hunt around for a front casing for a 2wd gearbox to bolt your V6 front casing too

 

why not leave the front diff in place and shafts, just replace the box and prop with a 2wd item then if you want 4x4 again its all there.

 

how would he keep the crap out of the diff then?

 

there is a flange on the diff that the small prop bolts too, if you leave the drive shafts in, you won't get any crap into the diff. All you are doing is removing the small front prop which will not let ANY crap into the diff

 

that'll do wonders for your rolling resistance / fuel consumption it's not like fuel is expensive these days is it?

 

he didn't ask for the most fuel efficient way of doing it.
he just asked what should be changed
