I've been in the market for a CR for quite some time now and have come to a "T" in the road.. I've searched and read what little their is on the auto shift 4wd. Can't really find any horror stories about them not working or being problematic but its hard to beat linkage for shifting. I was wondering if anyone has converted from auto shift to manual shift? I would just like the piece of mind knowing I'm not relying on an electric motor to do the job.
Also while im on the subject, I have looked at a several trucks (03-05's mostly) and in comparing vin numbers with a 305 motor truck and a 325 motor truck they are the same as far as the type of motor. I looked at a 11-03 305 motor with the letter "C" for the call out of the motor in the vin. Then I looked at another truck 5-04 and it too has a "C" in the vin. Now the 5-04 truck should have a 325 motor right? I still have trouble understanding if do you solemnly base which motor it is off the date or by the vin letter.
Thanks
