Hello--

I have a 2000 Max IV; its tranny is shot. I have no brakes on the right side when I am in forward, but it does drive. The right side does not drive when in I am in reverse, but it does have brakes.

I am all but certain that the T-20 tranny is shot / needs rebuilt, so therein lies the need for this question.

My brother has an old Chaparral 6X6, perhaps from the early 1970’s. We’re not sure what year it is. The T-20 in it works well, at least it did the last we used it.

The question is can I put the T-20 out of that old Chaparral into my 2000 Max IV??? If so, will it work as well as a newer one??? Will we have to make a lot of modifications??? I think it has a slightly different system that attaches the linkage for the steering levers to the front of the T-20. The old T-20 has an I-bolt attachment system of some sort, whereas the 2000 Max IV has the regular bolts and the U-channel.

Can they be easily and affectively switched???

Thanks for any and all feedback on this. I want to know what I am getting into before I attempt this.
