I'm wondering if the absolute position of the shift rod in the transfer case differs somewhat between the 1354 and 4406. The diagram is a little less than a great explanation.
The switches it shows in the bottom rectangle are actually in the motor. If the angular position the driver in the motor is in does not match the actuator shaft position for 4H, 4L or 2 then it will never know it is there or might overshoot. This could account for the warm motor it might be fighting itself.
I have a 1354 but have not dropped the change for the 4406 yet. From what I am reading here we need to figure out the shaft position in relation to the screw holes for both transfer cases.
I bet the position is different on the 2. Maybe not by much but enough to make it difficult?
This needs to be resolved, most of the threads I see with this swap they use the mechanical transfer case.
I might just have to cut my losses and put a 4406M in it. I now have a lifted truck with no 4WD.
