Can someone give me an idea of what is involved in a swap of this kind? I know the diff centres will need to change, but can i use the same gearbox for example? Will the exhaust bolt up easily etc.?
Thanks in advance.

Nope, bigger box required, different universals also I believe, same transfer case but different adapter flange, different clutch assy including slave.no doubt a heap of other stuff, probably radiator??, alternator different as 2.8 has the rocker cover mounted vac pump, would think the exhaust will be different as well. there are a few guys on here who have done it i am sure, do a search as well
Thanks Pee Bee. I thought it would be that way? Guess i'll talk to the mechanic and see what happens.
What about engine mounts they the same or need to be moved.?

Engine mounts bigger and in different location, go from 2 bolt on 2.8 to 4 bolt, gearbox and transfer case stay the same I believe, but cross member moves down a hole or two from memory
