Drop in a ZF5

robertbennet · Apr 27, 2015

Thinking about it would love to have a zf5

IDIoit · Apr 27, 2015

x1 million on the ZF5.
the cost will be the same reguardless...

the auto driveshafts should work.

direwulf23 · Apr 27, 2015

That was my assessment. Converting to a ZF5 was very similar to the price of an E4OD rebuild and converter.

trackspeeder · Apr 27, 2015

ZF's are overrated. LOL

I would rebuild the E4 with some good parts. Then put some good tunes to the truck.

Will the parts in my 2wd spare e4od from an idi fit in the 4wd e40d for the psd meaning the front pump and brass bushing

2wd and 4wd guts are the same except for the tail shaft for the transfer case. You sure would need a new bushing and seals for the pump to convertor shaft.

Actually, they're considerably under-rated, based on the designation. The "S5-47" means it's technically _rated_ for 470 ft-lb torque. There are pulling trucks with ZF-S5-47s developing, er, a little more than that.

Comparing any manual to an automatic is apples to oranges anyway. All depends on one's objectives. The E4OD can of course be built to shift faster than any hand on a ZF5 shaker. But if you're looking for simplicity, reliability, and not have to fret over things like your brake lights making your truck run cattywumpus, you go ZF5. Different strokes....

Yes, the pump will work. This will most likely be an "E" pump. It will get you by. But its not the greatest pump for heavy duty use.
