1994 F350 7.3 idi turbo ZF5 swap
Recently truck had been getting hard to start when cold and excessive cloud of smoke when it eventually started. Then it would idle and smoke. When driving down the road no smoke in mirror. When I let off the throttle it will smoke again. Not burning any oil...
I have a 94 F350 SRW and when I did my swap I used the original front driveshaft which has a double cardigan and it cleared the crossmember but I did have to get the front driveshaft shortened and the rear lengthened
Been a long time since I have had a manual trans but I wouldn’t say that it is hard to push or hold down compared to any other truck I’ve driven. But like said above I don’t hold it down for long I just put it in neutral until I’m ready to go. I have heard that the south bend is very stiff...
Thanks to the help from some of y’all and the search bar I’m back on the road. Took first drive yesterday. I used a ZF from a 2wd F Superduty and got driveshafts shortened/lengthend. I used the crossmember from my E4OD that had to be slightly modified. New clutch pedal assembly and pre filled...
Do any of y’all know if all 2 wheel drive F Super Duty trucks with the manual trans is the 4x4 trans with the brake on the rear instead of the transfer case? Have a guy who has one but he insists that it is 2WD and won’t work for a 4wd. I tried explaining what to look for and I think he is just...
Well I did the ATF in the filter trick and let it sit a day. I started it up and drove the mess out of it. Hasn’t stalled out since. Thanks for the help.
1994 F350 7.3 IDI turbo
Recently it has started stalling on me but will restart without a problem. I first noticed it would stall when I let off the pedal and began coasting to slow down for a stop sign or red light. I then noticed that if I rev it up while idling in park and let off it will...
Thank you for the help. I have a line on a diesel ZF5 (Needs rebuilt) and one from a 460 That the seller doesn’t know condition. He removed it from a parts truck. Both here local. I think I’m gonna try and get both if the price is right.
I need to know if a ZF5 from a big block motor will bolt up to a 7.3?
I’ve used the search function and can’t find the answer. Seems like several have asked but some say yes and some say no. Does anyone have first hand knowledge? I’ve seen several say that the ratio is different for the diesel...
Fixing to do a ZF5 swap in my truck and came across this since I have been finding a lot of the ZF5’s for sale need to be rebuilt. Thought this could help someone.

If the center bore of the wheel fits tight and centers the wheel on your hub then it is a hub centric wheel and needs lug nuts with a washer of shoulder. If the center bore is loose around your hub it is a lug centric wheel and you will need the tapered lug nuts that will center your wheel up...
Now that I have used it I can definitely see where the extension cord would make it more convenient. Not sure what book you’re talking about? The reader comes with a book that has the instructions for the unit and all the codes and how the system works.
I have a reader from Amazon and it works fine the few times I have used it. Directions that come with it says it doesn’t work on my 94 7.3 idi but I think they are talking about 94 7.3 di.
