Well, they finally came

Are the pistons aluminum? What is the black thing on the side of the piston?

Yes the pistons are forged alum. And I'm pretty sure they are Teflon coated

I made a little progress today I installed the body lift the adaptor and set the motor where I want in. Attachment 31822

man you are moving along quick. I don't know much about the AOD. It is NON electric? Correct? How does the TC lock up? What year is your AOD?
That Is the first Phoenix adapter I have seen outside of their website. Did you have to get anything else from Phoenix? Crank adapter?. Very cool to be able to buy an adapter
Looking good

Thanks my aod came from a 91 bronco but has been rebuilt AOD transmissions don't have a lock-up converter like most other automatic transmissions. Instead, everything's done inside the transmission. They employ a small, centrally-located input shaft that engages the front hub of the torque converter, and connects to the direct clutch hub. This clutch is engaged in 3rd and 4th gears, effectively making a "locked" 1:1 input shaft-to-crankshaft speed ratio. I bought the sae to sbf adaptor from Phoenix and I'm waiting for the flywheel adaptor. They had to custom make it from a cummins 3.3 adaptor. Odd offset

I can't wait to see how that trans works behind the diesel!

Made a little progress today
