i just wanted to know if any one could help me with a problem that i have. my 98 blazet has a two wheel drive tranny and one of my friend gave me a tranny form a 4x4 blazer. i know that the two wheel drive has a long tailhousing and the 4x4 has the transfercase. i just wanted to know if i could swipe the tranny out and if i could install the tail housing from my two wheel drive tranny in to the 4x4 and would that be a direct fit. could any one help me before i remove the tranny and save my self a problem.

The tail housing will bolt on But.
The 2W tail shaft and 4W tail shafts are different.
You would have to take the transmission apart to change the tail shaft.
Lot of work and if they are different years the valve body may different and wired different.
Here is a link that will give you a idea of what you will get into.

You are welcome.
How bad is the transmission that is in it or what is it doing or not doing?
If you get into chaging tail shafts I would consider installing a clutch and seal kit and looking stuff over while you have it apart.
Good Luck MT.

It might pay to get it checked on a transmission capable scanner for codes.
Sometimes it is only a solenoid or sensor problem.
If any codes post back code no.

and a message that says malfuntion manufactor control transmission
i don't know what that means

You need a full transmission/engine capable scanner to check it.
OBD11 will not check transmission problems.
Good luck
