ZF 5 Swap - 1976 F150, 2wd, 300 six, part 5: It's in!

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The rebuilt 300 and the ZF 5 transmission are in the truck. Started up the rebuilt engine for the first time but I lost the video of the start-up. If all goes well the next video will be a project wrap-up and a test drive.

    Man yeah Mr Pete!! You sure have some amazing skills my friend!! Loved the shifter tower!! Do t worry about the go pro, mine does that all the time. I have to pull the battery out I would.say 3 out of 5 times to get it to turn on. Looking fwd.to the test drive!!! I understand on the days gone by, I had to buy a transmission jack as well building the service truck!! Thank you sir for bringing us along, look fwd to seeing it in the road soon!! 😁😁🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍👍🛻🛻

    You are a very inspiring person but iam 63 years old I have put transmission in on rock and transfer cases in by hand but I do have 3 ton low pro floor jacks and I work on concrete now instead of doing it on the rock driveway!

    Thank you. A good floor jack on a concrete surface is a great help.

    That's great work there, Pete. Do you happen to know what model number transmission Would work well in my F600 to give me a five speed? Thanks for taking us on your adventure with this truck. 🙂

    Thanks SBF! I've thought about a five speed for my F600 as well but they're a different kettle of fish from this. I believe you'd have to source a 5 speed from a '60s or '70s F600 - F700.

    @farmerpete At least it's nice knowing that such a beast might actually exist. Thank you, my friend.

    Good morning Don! I hadn't heard about a Cummins gas engine. That should really be something! The old Chevy 292s had a pretty good reputation. They weren't around nearly as long as the Ford 300 six. I'm in Wisconsin.
