    4r70w swap with ford explore driveshaft

    nope its a drop in once you change the ujoint on the chunk side. They are the correct length 50-5" for a 351C with a 4R70W and LONG snout rear end yoke. The exploders use a flange to yoke style deal so you throw that away and use the correct transition U joint for your yoke weather it is a...

    I would suggest you use a solid spacer kit(20$) instead of a crush sleeve which gives you 1 try to get right.

    4r70w swap with ford explore driveshaft

    I have found the 4R up to mid 2003 had the provision for the driven speedo its just covered with a blind plastic plug on the tail housing. Remove it and shine a light or stick your finger in the hole and you will either feel a smooth output shaft or worm drive splines made into the output shaft...

    4R70W's are really the way to go in my humble opinion guys. I am onto my next build now and plan to put one behind my 600+ hp 460 cid aluminum headed 72 Mach1. I spoke with mr. Art Carr this week and he turned me onto the guys that make the adapter plate to put a small block trans behind a big...

I am getting one out of an 88 f250 with serpentine belts and a tranny with od. I know heavier springs and more cooling but will the mounts out of ..say a...
