    Transcommand for E4OD

    Is this so you can run an E4OD without the computer controller (as in a non electronic engine)?

    I'm interested too. My e-mail is [email protected], send me pics and let me know how much you are looking for. Also, what shape is the frame in? Do you have the paperwork?

    UD TD42 for a '50 Ford F6

    I'm running a 2sp rear, 6.23 high and 8.11 low. With the stock wheels and a 1:1 final drive in the tranny, Ford rated its top speed at 50 mph. I am guessing that 6th and possibly 5th as well are OD gears in the UD tranny and I am planning on running 9H22.5 tires. As I said, I am merely looking...

    UD TD42 for a '50 Ford F6

    Thanks, my truck won't be towing anything that weighs more than the original truck did reasonably loaded. In other words, it will haul two motorcycles and a 5th wheel RV. My concerns are simply fuel economy and the ability to maintain a reasonable highway speed.

It includes the 6 sp manual trans and the frame crossmember with motor mounts and they have guaranteed it will run without any major problems. The owner of the shop decided that he wanted it out...

    UD TD42 for a '50 Ford F6

    Well,I'm running a 6:22 rear (actually a 2sp; the low is 8:11) and the tranny is a six speed so I don't think power will be a problem. I am just looking for a way to get it to go highway speeds without the fuel gauge going hard right all the time. I am open to criticisms of the motor, anything...

    UD TD42 for a '50 Ford F6

    I have a line on one of these motors with a 6sp tranny for a good price out of a '93 UD1300 (wrecked) with just under 200k miles on it, considering it to power my '50 Ford F6. I'm a gasser guy, so my knowledge of diesels is not extensive and I am always open to learn new things. Anyone have any...
