Running gear questions
Hey guys. I was wondering if there is anyone out there that is pretty savy with the old 4 speeds that these things came with. I recently acquired a 78 with a c6. I have no idea what kind of condition the thing is in (because the motor doesn't run) and have had horrible luck with automatics of every make and era. I have an np435 that was previously in my 75 pickup in a divorced set up. If its not too big of a pain, I'd like to replace the c6 with it.
Being that junker 1978-79 broncos are scarce around here. I'm trying to way my options on how to do the swap.
I'm curious about a Few things:
What does it take to marry an np205 to a divorced style np435 (or is it even possible)? can parts from t18/t19 be used?
Assuming it is possible:
I'm guessing I won't be able to reuse my drivelines because the difference in length between the 4 speed and automatic. Are the wheelbases similar enough in later model broncos or f100s/f150s to use drivelines from them?
I'm also curious about the clutch linkage used in rigs. Do all the different engines use different linkage or is it a lot of the same parts adjusted differently?
Appreciate any info you can give me.
