NoahDL88 Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 So i was talking to myself about my Subaru and i says to myself, "myself, i wonder if its possible to seperate the 4wd lever and the low range lever on the transmission" the theory is that you could then have a 2wd Low range, which would be great concidering the car is a dog with the swampers, well, it was when it was running, but i'm working on that, so now that i've planted the seed, i'm gonna see what i can do about that, once i get the engine from Paul, hopefully this weekend, Paul you'll be around this weekend right? 18-20?

NorthWet Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 I do not see any reason why you couldn't, other than needing to fabricate new levers/linkage/trim. The one lever goes to separate actuators on the tranny. Once upon a time I pulled my rear axles so that I could use the low range for rush hour traffic... crawl isn't just for mud! I am pretty sure that the two functions are linked for user "convenience" rather than necessity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank B Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 Sure you can, it was a common mod on the old board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 I'm gonna have to look into this...... I know you can do it easily with the T-cases on trucks, but I was under the impression that everything was going on inside our transmissions and it was a single rod poking out for both functions.

Nah, definitley two rods poking out - the hi/lo range one goes right to the front, the 4/2 wd is further rear. (i think its that way round anyway).
