as the title implies, searching for an AWD rear axle setup. with or with out abs, does not matter. putting it in my 90 turbo. also the driveshaft and t case if you have them. looking to see if anyone has one near the 46805 area, which is gonna be difficult, but for the right price i would consider getting it shipped. thank you

Are you still running the common block 2.5 or is it a 2.4 swap? Reason I ask is if it is the 2.5, what are you doing to solve the interference issue with the PTU and the block?
It's still a 2.5 but I'll be swapping a 2.4 when this engine dies. Just gathering parts currently because I know it will take a while to find everything

Ah, ok. I thought you'd figured out something I wasn't aware of. Because it's a van, it would be kinds hard to use the Pacifica PTU. That was my solution for AWD with a CB engine. Haven't tried it out yet, but I have all the crap.
I've seen someone on Facebook quite a while back was designing and cnc machining parts to mate it up to a manual as far as I can remember, but it's been 6+ months since I've even been on Facebook.Quote:

if you can find the thread ..not sure of the user's site name spelling .."lotofboost" or lottaboost" (rip) he had some pics and a good description of that machining.. he did an awd onmi with a 2.4 motor (think it was a 2.4)
it was posted here or on turbo dodge .. years ago
I tried to find the thread a while back with no luck sorry or I'd have a link
Yeah, I was conversing with him on and off about it. Haven't heard or seen much in a while, either. He was trying to make it so the PTU was a direct bolt-on using this adapter plate. As it is, it requires some drilling/tapping of the transmission case, but to me, that's not a big deal. The other part to consider is that the driver's side bearing support needs to be machined to accept a larger bearing, unless you find a 1-year only transmission ('91 I *think*) that has the smaller bearing on that side of the differential.Quote:
