6bt in a 80series (1 Viewer)

[quintin]

hi everyone for those of you that have one how has your standard driveline held up as in breakages? Also are you running constant 4x4 or 2wd TIA

 

[cjmoon]

Don't think I've seen one yet. In either configuration. But people are not rock bouncing them either.

In the US theres quite alot here in Aus hardly any

I got a 6bt with a 5 speed getrag transmission and np205 transfer case in my cruiser.It's my daily driver and it's mostly in 2wd.Mild wheeling and 37" tires.So far so good,no breakage.

 

[quintin]

How long have you had the conversion done and any regrets?

 

[Mr Cimarron]

I have 20K on my conversion. I don't beat on it so no drivetrain breakage.

A decade almost, two rearends and a birfield, was to do with driving hard on it, I don't play on the rocks so to speak. No regrets with the 6BT though

6 days AWD no problems, I do not foresee, any in the future I don't rock crawl

Anyone running the 4l80e or the 6l80e atm was looking at manual but after test driving a auto definitely looking at the auto configuration

driveline been solid. installed taller gears and ARBs... trans is stock other than shift kit and controller. recently went to 35" tires (315/75/16), was one 33s... Everything about it seems like it should have come this way. Gobs of power, will cruiser 80mph with ease. Non-intercooled. HX35 turbo... may go bigger since the stock stall converter is so high, it can probably take the bigger turbo and breathe even better up top... 0-60 in 11 seconds which is solid for these rigs...

Not a hardcore rock crawler, but making it out several times a year and daily drive otherwise...
