Exclamation O.B.S. Cummins swap, video log in detail

Well I have been on a fabricating and mechanics adventure swapping my tired 7.3L IDIT for a 96 6BT with P7100 pump. Ill warn you video number 1 is kind of junk but the rest have some decent content. If you enjoy the videos give them a like and subscribe.

Also if you have any questions feel free to post them on this build thread.

Here are the first 4, enjoy!

Digging the swap, heavily considering doing the same thing. Any reasons you went with the nv4500 over the zf5?

I went with the zf5-42 diesel trans on my swap, the gears are nice and close together perfect for the Cummins.

The adapter kit for the transfer case was only $400ish. Otherwise I would of needed a different clutch, engine adapter, 6.0 starter. NV4500 seems to have better aftermarket support as well. Still had to have my drivelines modified but was well worth it with the space I saved
