I need a tranny code.
Im trying to buy a new tranny for a truck which does not have one. In order for me to order one (at least from the 2 places I called) I have to provide them with a number on some tag that sposidly hangs from the side.
Can anyone look up, or guide me to a place were I can look up a code for a:
5 Spd Manual transmission (towing setup) out of an
88 Ford F250, Standard cab, short bed, 2 wheel drive, 7.5 liter.
Not sure if it makes a difference, but has a dana60 with 4.33 gear.

I just checked my 88 Factory manuals and they don't list a ZF at all, just a M5OD-HD and the regular M5OD. I'll go out to the garage and check the service manual and see if the M5OD-HD is the ZF and edit this post.
Interesting, the service manual does not list a M5OD-HD, just the M5OD and the ZF. It has a picture of the ZF ID tag and it shows a Ford Part Nunber E7TA-7003-HA, but I don't know which motor it is for. It also shows it as a S5-42.
Probably not much help, but I tried

I finally found some history information on the internet. Seems that 87-94 is ZF-s5-42, and 95-97 is ZF-s5-47. I have a 95 460 thats going into an 88 f250. Anyone know which is the right one I need? Or what the difference is between the 2?

The last two numbers are the torque rating x 10.
42 = 420 ft lbs torque rating
47 = 470
And s5 means five speed
Later models have an electric speedometer, early ones are cable.
And you could send this place $1449.99 (shipping and core charge included) and they will ship you the right ZF.

No experience with them myself, wish I could afford one though.

It sounds like the parts house wants a number so they can meet a core charge responsibility. They could give you one without, but generally don't want to or lack the know how to get one with out the part number. People by-pass this by going to the junk yard and finding a wrecked unit...of course ZF's are a bit pricey to be doing it that way.
You could go to the recycler and find a trashed unit just to get the tag number. To bypass any future problems make sure the truck had a 460.
