whoa whoa whoa....a Powerstroke??

 

[jd4320t]

you have my attention.

 

[OneBadV8]

whoa whoa whoa....a Powerstroke??

Yep, 7.3 out of a 96 F350

 

[jd4320t]

so it's a Powerstroke which is a 7.3 turbo not just a 7.3?

Yeah, That sounds right.

So now you're on Team Bronco?

 

[jd4320t]

Hey as long as it runs well, looks like a clean and proper engine swap and doesnt have any electrical issues Im now on team Bronco.

Yeah, the pics show it with the body off the frame during the swap. Sounds like he put the F350 drivetrain and wiring on a Bronco frame and with a Bronco body.

maybe you could start a thread...I think I remember looking into it back in the day and found some negatives

wow...$7000 sounds cheap then

 

[jd4320t]

like?

drive train of course, electrical, and maybe something to do with the DOT...

 

[OneBadV8]

It's less than that


Truck (Body/Frame) has 196K miles and the Drivetrain has 203K

I'm thinking that's why it was the drivetrain from the F350 and not just swapping motors.

I'm curious what else though if you remember any of 'em
