BRONCO II & RANGER 5 SPEED TRANS TO
FORD V8 BELLHOUSING 1965 & UP
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
This transmission adapter is not compatible with vehicles that were previously equipped with diesel engines. The
transmission must have had a removable bellhousing. The transmission is light-duty and power shifting should be avoided
when used with a V8 engine. The adapter plate should be used with a specific Ford bellhousing found in F150 trucks, 1984-
1987. Refer to the Bronco II instruction manual for the specific Ford part numbers. If this bellhousing is not used, then the
clutch performance and slave cylinder mounting will need to be altered. The clutch splines on this transmission are 1"-23
and we have recommended the use of an 11" Dodge clutch disc. In order for this disc to work on the Ford input shaft, you
will need to modify the transmission splines with a hacksaw blade so the clutch disc can slide easily. The Ford engines use
two types of 11" pressure plates and you must make sure which flywheel you have prior to ordering your pressure plate.
The difference is the size of the bolts that hold the pressure plate. The bellhousing we recommend requires the use of a 164
tooth flywheel. This flywheel is only compatible with 302 engines and if using the manual transmission, you should avoid
the use of 289 engines.
1. Install the pilot bushing into the engine crank with the small seal towards the transmission. This will prevent the grease
from escaping the pilot bushing. We have installed a stock Ford bearing into a Ford V8 pilot bushing.
2. The special Ford bellhousing will use all stock Ford items including the slave cylinder mounting bracket.
3. The retainer snout protruding from the front of the transmission will need to be cut off without removing the plate from
the transmission. Refer to the illustration on page 2. This step only required on early models.
4. The adapter plate can be mounted to the front of the original 5 speed transmission. Use four metric bolts and lock washers
to bolt adapter to transmission. Be sure the stock seal is not damaged.
5. Bolt the new bearing retainer onto the front of the adapter plate using the bolts provided.
6. With the adapter plate and retainer all installed, you can now double check the length of the transmission input shaft
for shortening. The shaft will need to be modified to prevent the tip from bottoming out in the engine crank. Refer to
illustration on page 2.
7. Using the new clutch disc, now is the time to modify the transmission splines for a smooth clutch disc slide. The grooves
will need to be increased in depth so the Dodge disc can operate smoothly. We recommend a slight amount of grease
on the splines to assist the movement.
8. The transmission assembly can now be assembled onto the bellhousing using the new bolts provided. DO NOT FORCE
THE ASSEMBLY TOGETHER. It is very critical that the correct input shaft length be established prior to assembly.
CAUTION: The pressure plates that we recommend are designed for use with the Ford slave cylinder. If any
variation is used, you may find that it will not properly work with your existing slave cylinder. Use
the Bronco II conversion manual for additional engine conversion information.
NOTE:
The stock transmission plate on some late
model transmissions may require some
modifications. On the "D" code Mitsubishi
transmission, the front index hub of this
transmission must be shortened to allow
our adapter plate to seat flush up to the
transmission.
