Engine mounts, used 1/2" thick angle iron and plate and then the factory Cummins bushings
Attachment 49597 Attachment 49598 Lucked out and just had to drill some new holes and could reuse the factory Dodge trans crossmember Attachment 49599 Got the nose clip back together. Didn't get any pics of the brackets I made to fit the Dodge intercooler, may have to pull the grill back off and take some later. Straight piped, side dump with 5" chrome tip Attachment 49600 Used Ford rear axle spring plates with new holes drilled and shock tabs welded to them and then a high steer arm with a factory F350 drag link. Attachment 49601 I used the stock in tank electric pumps with a Holley fuel pressure regulator/w return bypass to cut the line pressure down to 7psi Attachment 49602 Fab'd up brackets to fit the Dodge radiator. Managed to get the Cummins throttle cable to hook to the Ford pedal and hit WOT. Same with shifter cable, modified the linkage on the A518 to fit the Ford cable, runs through all the gears, put the OD lock out on a toggle. Attachment 49603 Wired the grid heaters to a push button on the dash Attachment 49604 Patched the hole where the T-case shifter came through, still need to patch the hole in the carpet or get new carpet. http://i639.photobucket.com/albums/u...%20Swap/21.jpg How she looks almost finished, painted the wheels black and put my canopy back on Attachment 49605 Attachment 49606 Major things left to do are get pinion degree shims and align it, get a trans cooler and run the lines, figure out why the alternator isn't charging and get a front driveline built. Also before next summer, figure out how to mix and match the AC system to work, at the moment I just deleted it. |
Now get'er done mang!

What did you do with the power steering lines, I'm doing the same swap i have the engine and tranny in just don't know what to do with the power steering hoses.
|
Welcome to Diesel Bombers to start with!! :hellox: And as for the lines, I took both the Ford and Dodge lines into a local shop that builds hydraulic lines and had them build me a new one with the Cummins pump and Ford steering box ends. I think it was like $30-40, can't remember for sure now. As for the return line, it's just low pressure power steering hose. You should start a thread with your conversion too, would like to see pics of it!
