Transfer case compatibility
I looked around & didn't see what I was looking for so if this was covered, feel free to point to the thread.
Are the transfer cases all the same including the gearing for 04'-08'?
Second, are the electronic & manual transfer cases interchangeable?
In other words, if I had a manual xfer case in my truck & all I could get is one that was out of an electronic shift truck, are they compatible?
Can you just take the electronic motor off & swap your manual stick over to it?
The "bigger picture" to this is I am considering a cab-swap & many of the models have electronic shift transfer cases where mine is manual.
The answers to the above questions would let me know if I have to take the transfer case with the cab. Assuming all the interior & wiring came over with the "new" cab.
I am sure I could just cut the floor for the shifter but I figured why do that if I could just swap the case or just the electronic shift motor over to my current xfer case.
