GM 700R4 4-SPEED AUTOMATIC

The General Motors 700R-4 has a case length of 23-3/8", and is available in three different engine to transmission bolt
patterns. The case is available with a Chevy bolt pattern that has the top two holes 8-1/4" apart, a Buick bolt pattern that
has the top two holes 7" apart, and a 2.8L Chevy bolt pattern that has the top two holes 5-1/8" apart. The rear side of the
transmission case should have a square bolt pattern that uses 4 bolts. There are several various lengths of output shafts
that these transmissions have been furnished with, so you must make sure the included 25 spline output shaft is installed
into your transmission. The speedometer gear is normally located in the tailhousing, but when adapting it to the transfer
case, the location will change to the back side of the transfer case.

When installing the new transfer case adapter, make sure that the transfer case input sleeve and the output shaft do not
bottom out. We have found on occasion that a transmission output shaft may be slightly longer than we have allowed for;
and when coupling into the transfer case, we find a small amount of interference. The adapter housing and shaft must be
assembled to the back of the transmission without interference. DO NOT FORCE THE NEW TAILHOUSING ONTO

THE TRANSMISSION. If assistance is needed, please feel free to call us on our toll free number, 1-800 350-2223.

When assembling the adapter housing to the transmission case, we have provided you with a new square type O-ring seal
to prevent fluid leakage. This O-ring seal is a stock GM item that is used on all 700R-4 installations.

This adapter can be used on either Ford Rangers or Explorers. The adapter is 4" thick, and when used with out #712592

4.0L to 700R4 bellhousing adapter no driveshaft modifications should be needed. The adapter has a crossmember foot
that mimics your stock A4LD tailhousing.

The Borg-Warner 1350 & 1354 transfer cases both came in a manual shift and electric shift configurations. If your transfer
case is an electric shift type, just plug it back in again when it is reinstalled. If your transfer case is a manual shift type,
this kit includes a bracket to remount your stock transfer case linkage.
