Diesel SAE Bronco for sale
Too many dang trucks at my house! I built this as a toy and it is, but it's also expendable when another toy comes along. 1991 Silver Anniversary Bronco with 1988 7.3L NA IDI motor and ZF5 tranmission.

Look what I got for $350
That is a good deal providing it shifts good and doesn't grind and goes into reverse OK.- jas88

New Motorcraft fan clutch
Russ could you please elaborate on what spring modification you are referring to? I have searched and cannot find except for your occasional mentions that it needs to be done. I would like to try it on my existing fan clutch to see if it will help.- jas88

IDI Engine Removal
On these motors, because of the weight, I like to pull the core support out and also remove the front wheels and drop the truck down on blocks so I don't have to raise the motor any higher than I have to. If you do it this way, you do not have to remove the hood.- jas88

c6 torque converter install tips/specs
I am not sure what you guys think I meant, OF COURSE you put the converter on the tranny, but the main point is to seat the converter all the way in so it is engaging the transmission pump. Hell, anybody can get it on the input shaft, the key point here is to get it all the way in so you are...- jas88

c6 torque converter install tips/specs
The most important thing is to get it seated all the way into the pump. To check this, see if you can get your fingers around the outside of the conveter to where you can touch the backside (closest to the trans) of the converter with your fingertips. If you can, you do not have it all the way...- jas88

LUK SMFW disc issues...
How is such a clutch disc failure caused by it being SMF vs DMF? I am not getting that part.- jas88

dmf / clutch
Go with the LUK kit with the SMF. I did not even notice a diff in tranny noise when I did mine. There is a little bit of gear rollover when going real slow in a high gear, but every ZF I ever had does that. I don't think it's due to the SMF.- jas88
