****Flex Plate Needed!!!!****
I really need help finding a flex plate for a 1993 F350 Non Turbo Diesel. I thought I found one on ebay but when it arrived it was a flywheel.
This is the one I need.
I also need the spacer.
This is what I picked up from ebay. I guess this one will not work so I really need the sheetmetal version ASAP.
I am located in Southern California.

Not sure what you are talking about but a E4OD will most certainly NOT bolt up to that flywheel from ebay.
That spacer is really rare, I had one before.... but sold it with my transmission. Did you look online for that flexplate though? Are you converting to automatic??

No I am not swapping from MT to AT. I am just replacing the failed AT flex plate. I think I found one yesterday at a dealership. I ordered it and it should arrive today. $145 plus tax. I will post up what I find out once I get it.

Pre 93 IDI's use the flex/flywheel. After 93 it could be later stamped or early cast.

To the OP - as trackspeeder said the flywheel setup should work fine. The flywheel goes in place of your spacer and the smooth-edge flexplate that came with the flywheel fits inside it on the back side (towards the converter). See the four large openings in the flywheel near the starter ring gear? Those are so you can reach in from the front and access the nuts holding the converter to the flexplate behind it. I actually prefer this setup as it should help dampen some of the vibrations causing the failure you experienced w/ your factory setup. But I guess a small spacer is cheaper to produce than a monster flywheel, so Ford eventually went w/ that setup instead.
