This thread is GREAT!!!! I am also a rockcrawler builder that is heading into the hotrod arena. I usually build tube chassis/comp style buggies and full body rigs *current build is a FJ40 on 42's, small block, dana 60's, 4 links,...)
I am also builing my wife a 1950 chevy 3100 with a 4.8, 4L60, and an AWD setup. Its the AWD part that is giving me a headache.
Having a full frame allows me the ability to build a complete tube chassis. I plan to run the Bravada ront end and graft that frame onto the tube chassis. I can sink it as low and/or and high as I need to get the right ride height.
My question for you is how you are going to mount the coilovers in the controol arms? I was hoping to run airride on this thing, and I have no idea how to get it to fit.
Best of luck

is that output shaft cut down to 4l60 size? i am pretty sure the syty guys stopped doing that because they shear off real easy with power. they started cutting the transfer case input shaft bigger instead.

yes. You are right on both counts. I'm re-thinking choosing the cheaper route. I need to pony the big bucks to get the special t/c 32 spline input shafts that will match the th400/4l80e Trans.

I need to buy a 32 spline transfer case shaft. I recently picked up a couple gt35 size turbos, wastegates, blowoff valve, 80# injectors and dual fuel pumps. Definitely gonna need the bigger input shaft

I got it from Speed Inc. They don't currently have it listed on ebay, nor their website, so you'll probably have to call them.
You'll also need an adapter to bolt the t case to the trans like this:

I think someone had them cheaper though. I've got a lathe, so I'm just going to make an adapter.
