Won't work. Bellhousings are different... see pics below - I tried this
earlier this summer and discovered that there are provisions on the 4x4
transmission for bolting up the drivers side engine/axle/transmission
bracket/brace - that are not there on the bellhousing of the 2wd versions.
Might work without that brace fully installed - but I didn't, and
wouldn't try it. That interconnecting brace is there for a reason - and
installing a 2wd trans into a 4x4 set up, might cause strength and
durability issues. Think cracked tranny case.
By the way - your 88 parts truck? Whats left of it? Where are you
located? And you are my new best friend!
