    Nothing to add? I highly doubt everyone are still going with the old t19/18, as robust as it is, it still robs one of the overdrive function.

    Thnx pal, UPDATE; I just came back from Delano MN, all three F250 he had sitting around were equipped with 4.10 gears, so no luck there. BUT, there was a 89 F350 4x4 flat bed dually, can I use the ZF5 from it? What do I need if I plan on keeping my t-case and only swapping in the tranny?

    HELP!! I want to swap the differentials in my truck, mine are 4,10 I believe, look at the sticker, the beige one is from my truck, the blue one is from the donor truck which has 5.0 EFI (1896) with E4OD. Will they fit my diesel truck?? I got a T19 for a transmission with the ultra low 1st.

    Sir, you were right, it was too big, spent about an hour filing it down, and matched the gasket to the old lift pump (thank god the garbage truck hasn't come around yet) :) Now it fits!!
