Looked at the first 5 pages of old threads but couldn’t find exactly what I was looking for.
Picked up a 92 5.8 efi engine for cheap. It is out of an F150. I want to mate it to a 4r70w but there are so many years and choices. I read on here that 98 and newer are better due to some internal upgrades. Will a 98 4r70w that was mated to a 4.6 work or will I need some kind of adaptor? How about a controller recommendation? Not looking for ultra expensive but not looking for ultra cheap either. Reliable is the key.
How about transfer case recommendations? It seems from many previous threads the fiield is narrowed to the expensive Atlas 2 or the less expensive NP205 as the best options?
This will be a weekend vehicle to take out off-road (want it capable but not looking for the extreme), beach trips, family fun, etc.
Am I missing anything? I will be outsourcing this entire build/change simply because my expertise and time constraints don’t work in my favor. Any input is greatly appreciated.
