Replace non-ACD transfer case w/ACD transfer case
I have a 2003 Evo VIII with a non-ACD transfer case that is on it's last legs. Can someone tell me if I can upgrade to a later model transfer case with ACD? What are the complications?
Thanks for your help.

a center diff. new wire, acd pump and tank and also a acd computer and a new drive shaft. oh. I think you need a new ecu also. new dash board that will display the setting. maybe a new tranny, new front and rear diff that will work with the acd, i think.

I don't believe it's that involved. Although, the center diff + ECU with a ACD controller is the far least.
Better off getting a 35/65 or 25/75 front to rear(respectively) mechanical diff for some drifting fun on the track. It's much easier and less expensive.

Its not worth it just get a shep rebuild or get a lsd swap which will make you car drive and shift like a champ. When i got my ralliart i said it can be all that then when i started taking sharp turn at a high rate of speed thats where it all paid off.

Thanks, Guys
You have told me enough to decide that it's not worth the trouble. I already have an LSD upgrade, so I'll stay with the same setup. Now I need to find an economical source for a rebuild. I appreciate your help!
