1997 f250 nv4500 tranny mounting questions
 
Hi everyone. I am currently putting a 12v cummins and a nv4500 in my 1997 f250 that used to have a 7.3 powerstroke and a e40d transmission. Right now I am working on putting in the nv4500. I was wondering if there was anyone out there that has done this and could tell me and/or post some pics on how they got the tranny high enough without hitting the bottom of the truck and how they mounted it. Thank you.

No pic but how I did mine was nv4500 dodge mount 1/2 plate steel and grade 8 bolts and washers. Drill two holes in the plate steel to bolt to the tranny then mount your nv4500 mount to x member (drill it out to your needs) then see where the holes line up plate steel to nv mount then take it out drill the plate steel. Proceed to drink a beer. Then put it back together and with the gap you get from the bolt heads (plate to nv mount) compensate this with washers. Hard to explain but still simple.

If you search the conversion forum there's at least one build with a NV4500 :c:
