Our shop build is going with an NV4500 in the 66 bronco to replace the 3 speed. Is there a detailed build thread for this? If not can anyone tell me a list of what we will need to consider.
Also I see that we can get just the adapter kits or I see this at Toms Bronco Parts

Does $3150 seem right or high? I favor a one stop shop just because it will simplify things for our customer and for us. Meaning a faster build time.
Also the 3550 is less expensive bay $500 would you consider the 3550 as comparable to the 4500?
The goal is a fun mountain driver, for hunting and fishing and around the ranch. Maybe light wheeling in Moab and some mountain trails. We are going with a slightly build 302, fuel injection and a lift with 33s or 35s.
Will be need a different cross member or can the old one work if relocated?
Thanks bunch. Any other sources for the 4500 and adapters? I know Advanced makes adapters, and does wild horse, but they all seem the same...
