    ZF5 rebuild preferences? DIY, rebuilder, etc.

    Did you ever get around to rebuilding your zf5? How did the rebuild kit workout for you? Mine is in desperate need of a rebuild. I can't shift into 3rd without grinding.

    Headlight / dimmer switch keeps popping fuse..

    Glad you got it fixed! I think you could have de-pinned the connector instead of cutting the wire.

    Headlight / dimmer switch keeps popping fuse..

    Test the brown wire with the headlight switch unplugged. Is there power? Is there resistance between the wire and a ground?

    Headlight / dimmer switch keeps popping fuse..

    Is the brown wire open or shorted when you pull the headlight switch?

    Headlight / dimmer switch keeps popping fuse..

    You're right I forgot it was powered through the plug. I don't see how it's possible that the brown wire on both sides of the plug (if disconnected) is grounding.

    Headlight / dimmer switch keeps popping fuse..

    Does it blow the fuse if the main harness plug at the firewall is unplugged?

    Headlight / dimmer switch keeps popping fuse..

    How was the headlight switch plug? It's pretty common for the plug to be melted.

    Clutch hydraulic line?

    Hey guys, Has anyone built a custom clutch hydraulic line? I'm having clutch hydraulic issues again and I'd like to replace the plastic line. Russell makes some fittings that converts it to AN that look like they may fit.

    Bleeding zf5 hydraulics?

    Well looks like I got it figured out. I gravity bled it for a little while then manually pushed the slave back in multiple times. After I was done with that I used an old clutch master cylinder cap and drilled a hole in the top. I shoved in a rubber fitting that came with my Mityvac and pulled...

    Bleeding zf5 hydraulics?

    I cant find a prebled unit unless a 92-96 one would fit the older body style 87-91? I tried that method but already cut the strap off that holds the slave cylinder rod in. When I pushed the rod in it spilled brake fluid out of the master. I tried another method where I removed the slave...

    Bleeding zf5 hydraulics?

    Hey guys, Does anyone have any special tips or tricks on bleeding the master/slave cylinder? My clutch pedal feels like normal but I'm only seeing about 3/8" travel at the clutch fork and I can barely get it into gear without grinding. It engages at the very bottom of the pedal. There isn't...

    Yeah a lot of people tend to destroy them for swaps. I bought one wrecked for my swap. If the guide pin is stuck you may not be able to pull the fuel pin up and out. I suspect due to it sitting that it is gummed up/stuck.

    Going To Talk to a Shop

    It faces towards the front of the truck. Here is a write up about someone repairing the fuel pin leak (also called guide pin) My fuel pin was leaking a couple months ago so I had to tear the top of my pump apart to replace the little o ring. This was a couple years after my 3200rpm governor...

    Going To Talk to a Shop

    Have you checked the intercooler boots for a leak? My other suggestion is the fuel pin/guide pin is stuck in the bore. I'd pull the top of the AFC off and pull out the diaphragm out with the fuel pin (mark the diaphragm before you pull it out) If you look down the bore you will see a pin. It...

    Does it rev up like normal? Does it smoke? Does it create boost?

    Fuel line recommendations

    I've been using aluminum fuel line and return line on my F350 for 4.5 years now. No issues at all. I'm using rubber fuel line on the ends. It's cheap and extremely easy to bend. Not sure how idi trucks are set up. Mine was a gasser and I ripped out the entire fuel system. This is what I...

    Hydroboost output shaft

    They are discontinued. I bought a new one a couple years ago for my Bronco. I'm planning on going with a Superduty hydroboost when the time comes. It will take some work on the mounting plate to get it to fit.

    U joints

    You can't complain with that!

    U joints

    The front at the tcase should use a double cardan joint. If your rebuilding your driveshaft are you going to replace the center ball? Personally I use digital calipers and measure my u-joints. Then I look them up and buy them online. I only buy Spicer but it's personal preference.

    Hay, Brick nose freaks!!!

    Ok stupidly I mounted the projectors upside down. I assumed the cut off sheild would go on top but it actually mounts on the bottom. I had to remove some jb weld that held the cut off sheild wires through the headlight housing and I was able to rotate the projectors. After adjusting the...
