Bleeds IH red...
Ok so the input shaft bearing is wiped out on my T19, as you all read I was sniffing around the idea of a NV4500 but I don't have upwards of $3000 to get one. I probably have upwards of $1300 into the T19 in the scout now (flywheel $125,south bend kevlar clutch $350, trans its self $600, jackshaft $275). So some of you convinced me the ZF maynot be the **** burger I thought it was, also seeing it going for about $1100 remaned ready to rock online isn't too hard to swallow. The only thing is can I use the clutch and flywheel I have now? How much longer than the T19 is the ZF5, I have a 15 inch jackshaft and I could shorten it a little without the angle being too awful. What's the first gear ratio? What should I look for with one? Suggestions or comments about going from the T19 to the ZF5? I know the T19 (other than bearing failure) is about as strong as they come.
