    6.9 E350 C6 to E4OD or 4R100?

    Yes, the USShift controller uses the stock FIPL. Part of the controller setup is to calibrate the controller by letting it read the FIPL first with your foot off the gas pedal, then with the gas pedal fully depressed. No trying to adjust the FIPL.

    6.9 E350 C6 to E4OD or 4R100?

    I have an e4of in my ambulance with USShift controller. It's not a manual, but so far it's OK.

    6.9 E350 C6 to E4OD or 4R100?

    I suspect that a "fully-manual valve body" for an e4od could be made by hooking switches to the valve body connector, but it might not be simple to figure out which switches to which wires.

    I think she's trying to tell you to change your shocks before you break your cupholder.

    That's the best kind of cupholder.

    IDI return line caps - aluminum 6061!

    I found this, I think it's the right link? Looks as if there are Chinese knockoffs now, too. https://www.ebay.com/itm/357948135660?itmmeta=01KPRCKH9RD8P3B77QGVEA2Z9T&hash=item53575f18ec:g:b9QAAOSwcxZoDXic

    7.3idi swap

    I had a couple of Sixties C60s, the second had the two speed rear end. Don't try to shift it when it's cold!

    6.9 E350 C6 to E4OD or 4R100?

    I have a usshift controller on my vanbulance. It's way better than stock for understanding what's going on in the trans. Pretty happy with it.

    Rock Auto or pelicanparts.com or mercedessource.com, I've been able to find most stuff for my '84 w123 without resorting to ebay.

    7.3 IDI Tachometer

    Yes, I'd start by checking the wiring from the tach pick up on the IP gear housing, then change that pickup. Maybe, first check your grounds.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Mine is a standard civilian ambulance, loads of outside storage which intrudes on the inside. We use it for overnight road trips, and for grocery runs, so that works for us.
