so i have a 94 bronco with the auto trans im not a fan of autos and this trans is biting the dust any ways so i have a t19 i would like to drop in its out of an 89 f20 what is needed to do the swap i heard i need a new pwr steering pump im not sure if this is true im not sure why that would matter also what bout the ecu do i need to change it will it make it run different or would it just have a check engine light
Aside from al of the clutch mechanism equipment (is there a hydraulic clutch setup for a T19?), you will need to puta 400 ohm resistor into the MLPS connector to "tell" the ECM that the E4OD (that isn't there anymore) is in "Drive". Beyond that, there should be no issues making the swap save fabrication and driveshaft length changes.
I understand wanting to use a transmission you already have but the M5OD and the ZF S5-42 were both OEM manual transmissions that will bolt in readily and the clutch mechanisms and hydraulics will bolt in as well with no fabrication required save to have drive shafts modified for length. But then replacement driveshafts of the proper length are available aftermarket for these applications as the M5 was available stock in the Bronco and the S5-42 ZF is indentical in length.
yes the t10 has the provisions for a slave celnder on the bell housing the truck that this came from had hydri cluch what is this resistor what does it look like were do i get one i have friends that work at the drive line shop and do alot of busnis with them so they cut me a deal cus of the amount of suff i have them do so that's ok so other than that is a straight forward swap
You will need a bellhousing for a 4.9 (300)/5.0 (302)/5.8 (351w). The diesel bell housing is a different bolt pattern, size, etc.
Honestly, you don't even have to find the resistor, just keep the MLPS from the side of the E4OD and leave it in the position that it sits when the E4OD is in DRIVE. This will "tell" the ECM that the truck is always in DRIVE allowing full performance and proper fuel metering. The other option I spoke of requires removing the MLPS and jumping the VREF signal terminal and the SIG/RTN terminal with a resistor that you can get at any Radio Shack.
$500 isn't too bad for a ZF especially if its the wide-ratio unit. Make certain it is a 4WD version or the tailhousing won't work.
Wide-ratio ZF's have a 5.72:1 1st gear and 5.24:1 reverse. The close ratio units are 4.14:1 1st and a 3.79:1 reverse. Both have a 5th gear overdrive WR - 0.76:1, CR - 0.77:1.
