Nightpath Posted July 26, 2018 Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 Seeing as my inspection is coming up soon on my Eagle, I need to make sure that I'm dealing with the least amount of hassle possible. Essentially I swapped my transmission and transfer case from the original to an AW4 and NP242. I was chatting with a guy who does inspections today getting my wife's vehicle done and I asked him about it. He said that he doesn't want his inspection ticket pulled for inspecting my car, but the vehicle isn't lifted, I just swapped out my transmission and transfer case (and put in a newer Inline 6 that wasn't worn out). I know technically that it's modified, but a bolt in transmission and transfer-case isn't a real change to it. It would take a keen eye to noticed that it isn't stock. Anyone have experience on this?

Brunet-Hemi Posted July 26, 2018 Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 I'd bet 90% of shops wouldn't notice. But I'm sure someone here would know of a shop that does modified cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerram Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 I would not consider that modified, it is still configured the same as before, inline 6 , trans and t-case. Good to go, that isn't a modified car. You are over thinking the safety insp, its a $30 fee that a shop has to spend 30 min on. They loose money on that. Every older car has upgrades , example, my 67 mustang, swapped out points for electronic ignition, swapped 3speed auto out for an auto overdrive, are those mods? No, upgrades , yes. I wouldn't have asked the safety inspection tech anything. Worst he could do is inspect it, or tell you he won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightpath Posted July 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 I wasn't overthinking it, the guy who does inspections sure was though. I told him the aw4 was basically the 998 evolved and the np242 was just a better 4x4. The way he talked my car was some magic infused vunderwagen with the high technology of 2098.

Nightpath Posted July 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 Just called Service Nova Scotia. They stated as long as there were no chassis modifications than it shouldn't be seen as modified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
