    A3 Tranny in an A2

    the question isnt so much if it will fit but more why would you want to put an a3 trans in an a2? the a3 uses a 3000-3200rpm rpm motor . While the multi only goes to 2600.In other word if you put an a3 trans in a a2 top speed would be about 42mph. Even if you put 46s on it top speed of about...

    77 m880

    they sell a part time kit to go in the tranfer case that is in it. and they sell lockout kits for the front axle to. But if you do the part time kit you really dont have to do lock outs unless you are looking to save on fuel . but that would be alot easier and look more original that cross...
