automatic to ZF5 conversion for '96 f250 powerstroke

Is there anybody out there that is selling a ZF5 setup for a 2wd OBS?

Or does anybody in the hedgesville/inwood area have an automatic transmission for my truck that I can swap in while I'm here and leave the core for the person who gives me a replacement transmission as payment

just off the top of my head your going to need the brake sled w/3rd peddel, slave setup and trans, probably a new driveshaft, shifter, and other odd and ends. it probably will be cheaper to just find a used auto trans and swap it in.

I don't care about the money I'm going for the reliability of the manual transmission this will be the 3rd time that my trans has been rebuilt

then get a BTS or John Wood auto. Typical rebuilt auto isn't that sturdy.

I just did this swap. For an extended cab long bed,

• trans (free)
• pedals 100
• shifter 60
• boot 50
• knob 25
• clutch (solid flywheel) 275
• trans mt and crossmember (m5od/c6 xmbr) 100
• clutch hydraulics 65
• driveshaft lengthened w new carrier (275)

Drives great, bit even with a free trans ended up pricey. My e4od was done for, even though truck only has 109,000 on it. Glad did swap though

I have found everything minus the driveshaft for $450 and trans only has 40k miles on it since it was last rebuilt

Did you need any different electronics to swap?

I've heard you can use the automatic pcm but you have to re pin it
