You will need custom drive shafts regardless and will have to remount rad eliminate a custom Trans mount modify tunnel for shifter modify firewall for oil filter housing i I were to do it again Mercedes 4th offer loto of kits with bigger stronger transmission t-case options that will be your best bet cuzip I can't make it for 495 like they sell there kit I got 30 hours in to mine and that's not matrials either 30×25 a hour my time not practical for you that's your best solution
Uhh, no I won't need custom driveshafts if I retain my stock transfer case. That's the point haha.
Doesn't sound too bad. A sledge hammer helps with the firewall and the oil filter is installed on hoses (on mine anyway) so there's some room. I don't mind cutting the floor open and plating over the empty spot.
All I need is an adapter for a transmission that bolts to the 1354 (m5r1, fm146 (probably the same housing on fm145)).
Thanks anyway!
