I found a good donor for a 4.0 swap, a 93 exploder with 4.0 and m5od, but it's only 2 wheel drive, will this tranny bolt up to a BW 1354? Or do I need an adapter between the tranny and t-case?
I have a few FM's but i'd rather not use 'em.
 
No, you need to swap in a 4x4 output shaft and t-case adaptor.
 
Ok, thanks thats what I needed to know

No, you need a 4WD transmission.

While you "could" do this if you had the parts and the skill, it's almost never worth it when the correct transmission costs less than the parts needed....
 
I see, thats what I thought I had heard at one point but was not certain,
thanks gross
