New rear driveshaft, the only thing they reused was my yokes.

Shortened front drive shaft.



Re adjusted stock t-case linkage.

Here's an up close pic of the only wiring in the whole project. The blk/grn and blk/vlt wires get wired to the reverse light switch on the trans. The blk/wht wire gets run into the cab to the neutral safety switch on the clutch pedal.



This is what I was talking about when I said the fire walls rot out.

Powerstop rotors and new pads.



Energy suspension sway bar bushings. These make a big difference in handling but are a PIA to install bc they don't flex at all.


Original 68' unsilenced air cleaner. Not get for power but it sounds great.


Computer tuned by B&G Performance.

Just saw this post! Sorry for rehashing this old post. My R/T is about ready for some serious upgrades. I always wanted to convert to a manual but my only concern was, can I still retain the AWD power train?

Looking at the picks, it appears the AWD are still there. But did not see if the NV3500 is bolted up to the AWD transfer case. If it bolts up with almost minimum modifications, I will plan to get mine converted over to manual when I get my 5.9 rebuilt.

Just need a trans out of a 4x4, it should bolt right up to the t-case. You'll have to do something about the trans range sensor though...
