will a 6 speed from a 99+ bolt to a 92 7.3L?

But its not that easy.

Bolt patterns match...

You need to register on the forum to view it though. they use the same vBulletin forum as TRS.


t is easier swap with the two wheel drive, but can be done even with a 4x4. The issues with the 6 speed are:

The 6 speed has a different input shaft (1.375 vs 1.25) and output shaft (24 spline vs 31 spline). So a custom clutch disc will need to be made. The old transfer case can not be used, so the 6 speed transfer case will need to be installed. This means loss of the speedometer drive, so you will need to modify the instrument cluster to hold a 92 speedometer.

The 6 speed clutch slave must be used, however it uses a different size pressure line so and adapter must be made up to splice idi line to the 6 speed line.

Fab a new crossmember and an adapter plate for the two upper bell housing holes which do line up.
Add an automatic transmission cooler and lines.

You driving an IDI? or just doing some work on one?

looking to replace my plow. It's a 95 Chevy 3/4 ton with a tired 6.5 and on its 3rd transmission. the Farmer down the road has a 92 F250 7.3 turbo, automatic, and a newer plow. I was thinking D60 and manual trans swap.

1992 didnt come stock with a turbo. Do you know what it has on it? Hypermax, Banks or ATS (stock ford)?

 

[Ozwynn]
