Glad to hear!
I used the 5-speed out of a '98 F-150 with the 4.2l V6 and the BW4406 and drive shafts out of a 99-04 F-150 so I could keep electric shift-on-the-fly. Clutch, flywheel, throw-out bearing, pilot bearing, and starter are all out of a '95 F-150. In order for this to work the transmission crossmember needed to be modified, the gas tank was moved back about 2", both drive shafts were shortened, and the shifter trim had to be cut a little bit because the F-150 5-speed places the whole thing back a few inches further than the Ranger/Explorer units. Aside from that, it bolts right in and works great!
Thanks! The donor truck was a 2000 so that’s what all the wiring, ECU, MAF, etc. came from.
Got it running! Turns out it was a bad ECU, just got back from the dyno last night and it's almost 100% sorted out. Just need to put some miles on it to clear the P1000 and see what pops up. It likes to stall when I'm coming to a stop, tuner thinks he can iron that out with a few minor tweaks and I'm managing it with the throttle in the meantime. Tuning was done by Al Junior at Fonse Performance in Sicklerville, NJ. He used a Mustang Dyno and Delta Force Tuning, truck put down 237hp and 276tq. It makes power up to about 5400 so that's where we set the redline. Runs and sounds great, pulls way harder than it did with the stock 5.0. I'm extremely happy with it!
Sure thing! I'm going to put it up on a lift in the near future to make some tweaks to the exhaust and replace my rear shocks, I can get a bunch of good shots then.
