I have a 1999 Merc Mounty AWD 5.0
Im already saving for a D.S.S. 331 with 10.5 :1 compression Trick Flow heads, Intake, Chip, SCT Cust Tune, 1.7 rat. rockers. the works....
I might as well change up the drivetrain while Im swappin engines.
My Question is would I be best swapping the front end with another explorer 2wd, Or just get rid of the front diff? not sure
Then gett rid of the 4404 TC, Get rid of the 4R70W..
Then put in a Built T-5 and a clutch assembly from a manual Explorer sport or other V6 Explorer. Custom out the center console to get the Shifter to fit in there.
This is what I plan to do, just not sure how to approach
Its gonna be a street truck so no need to offroad.
