Welcome to the board! Do you have any pics of your truck? You should post in the 4x4 area to have a better response on your 7 R4 conversion. I can't honestly remember all the details for a 700R4 so I won't lead you in the wrong direction.

The front axle will keep you from moving the engine to far forward.

send pics too!
