Don't know why it keeps ripen my pics sideways
Or how to fix them.

So.... bit of a story.
quite a bit ago my son picked up an AOD and engine for Smurf (the old blue bronco). All we needed was the engine.
Trans was junk but it traded for a NP208. But no trans.
long story short, got a smokin deal on a Mazda 5 speed (ford truck trans) and a slip yoke transfer case, and when I stared to install it found it was for a 4.6 modular (starter is in the wrong place)
DAMn IT !!!!!!
found another smokin deal on a Mazda 5 speed 5.0 but its a 2WD, all I need is the case so spent the day striping out the 2WD trans 5.0 and the 4WD case 4.6and installing the 4WD innerds into the 5.0 case. TA DA !!!!!
A Mazda 5 speed for a 5.0 4X4 trans, plus a bonus. The NP 208 bolts right up.
now to install it.

Got a little more done today with no pics (sorry)
got the old shock mounts cut off the rear axle, got the park brakes mixed.
modifying 7.5 park brake system into a 9 inch drum.
now ya got a fallow me here. Ford made two different hydraulic lines for the clutch lines ( I’m a ford dealer tech and I NEVER knew this. A small port hydraulic slave and a large port hydraulic slave. I’m assuming F150 and Ranger. so I had to “modify” the line for Ranger master to the F150 slave
now I need to find my missing engine harness and front hubs and I’ll be good to go.
hope to have this on the trail this summer....
