cheap 12v to superduty swap
#13
I'm still trying to get some pics of the motor mount and crossmember. I actually used the stock 93 mounts, but modified the drivers side to match the angle of the superduty front crossmember. Then I drilled new holes (slotted) in the crossmember to accept the motor mounts. One thing I do want to change is the tranny mount. I used rubber isolators between the tranny and crossmember, but the tranny bolts are bolted right to the crossmember so there is a bit of vibration. I ran it this past wknd till the alternator crapped out, but got 'er rblt for $70. Also the clutch won't fully dissingage, but I found out why. Not only was the clutch pedel bushing gone, but the shaft wore a oval slot in the bracket a 1/4" worth! Once I get the new bushing in and the JB weld cures I should be in buisness. I'll still work on the pics when it quits raining
