I'm in the process of working out how to go about marrying up a 2 speed powerglide to a lux transfer case .Has anyone done this or has anyone got any ideas of the problems I will encounter. My Idea was use the yolk off the p/glide cut it off at the uni and the get a old pline shaft from a lux box cut it down then join the 2 together , this is done by simlpy mountig the 2 units independently of each other so that they run true.
On the t/case end fab up a peice of 4-6mm plate as a cover plate with a peice of tube coming off it , close enough to get a dust boot to cover the shafts , Will this work
Lockers or Knockers ,both will make for fun.

The idea was a cheap and reliable drive train,I know there is always range gear,but i have a powerglide available and i've got transfercase and front and rear diffs and a 253 ,as well as a set of 37'' on beadlocks . So its a matter of getting the rest i spose hydro assist steering or full hydro ????? electrics and so on.

I love terra firma-the less firma the more terra
Might also pay to check the bolt pattern from the block to the trans. From memory the 253's all were a holden pattern and 90% of all the aussie glides sold in holdens are chev pattern. There was one holden model (HK?) that had the glide upto a holden pattern block.
Might be wrong but alarm bells were goin off in my head. Wouldnt be too much to re-drill the block tho but if your unpreparded for it, it can catch you out when least needed.
Duct tape is like the Force,
it has a light side, a dark side
and holds the universe together.

After a few phone calls and some homework on pirate i thenk its gunna cost me more and acheive less buy using a powerglide so as much as i dont want to I'll probly end up using the drive train less the diffs from a range as it will cost me about $500-1000 for the range parts 3.5 +Zf+ lt230 and then just bolt it up.
