Shifter cable mounting went much quicker that I expected as well, have great travel with no geometry problems at all.Very little fab required, I only had to make the angle mount and on the allison shift arm I had to remove the male attachment pin, the rest is factory FMC hardware. | emergency brake modification was a breeze, just extended the stock bracket a bit and it was pretty much a bolt in using the factory FMC u-bolt to retain the cable. | (1 Comments) new driveshaft installed with the new differential end yoke, super tight fit but it's in! All parts are spicer. End Yoke: p/n 3-4-6221-1X Slip Yoke: p/n 3-3-1511KX Yoke Shaft: p/n 3-82-811 | Shows the difference in the yoke shaft diameter, new shaft is larger and 16 spline vs 10 spline. One nice thing about 16 spline is that you can get a true 90dg phasing which can't be done with the 10spline (you can only get 72 with two teeth or 108dg with 3 teeth rotation). I talked with a couple driveline shops and both said that if the angles are unequal(as they are on an FMC) then 90dg phasing is proper installation. | ||
u-joint difference between stock and 1410 series The Neapco 1410 to 1480 u-joints are p/n 3-1448 | 3" square tube drop down structure, same width as the frame rails and same as the new engine cross-member | fabricated my own transmission mount bracket based on pic's from Stephen's and some others one line. I couldn't bring myself to pay $70 for it. | passenger side required further roll back of the electrical and plumbing which took entirely too long.. | ||
drivers side was pretty easy as there wasn't much interference | repurposing the original transmission cross-member | just enough room to get the rear sump of the oil pan off if needed | still 1/2" clearance | ||
