I see so many of these swaps but they all seem to be going from a 2.9 to the 4.0. I have a 84 that I'm considering this swap into. I know the 4.0 goes right onto the 2.9 mounts with no modification necessary. Does the 2.8 to 4.0 need any modifications made? If so does anybody have pictures...

1984 Bronco II with a duraspark conversion. I just installed this 2.8L motor and also swaped out the C5 for the M5OD. After wiring in the new starter as asdm08 recommended, I was able to get the truck to turn over. Now for some reason when I turn the key to start, I'm only getting a clicking...

On my 84 I have a solinoid mounted on the fender and then just one wire that ran down to the starter. When I swapped in the M5OD trans with matching starter it has the big thick wire and then a spade connector. Right now I have the fender mounted solinoid hooked up and then just the big wire...

Truck is a 84. I'm installing a 4.0 M5OD trans with my 1350 t-case attached to my 2.8L. I thought this would have been cake since I'm using a transmission jack and not trying to bench press it into place. My clutch alignment tool fully inserts but when I try and get the transmission to sit...

I am trying to find out where you can buy just the alignment tool and not have to buy the whole clutch assembly. Does anybody have a link they can share as to where I can purchase one or have one to possibly sell? Thanks

I don't think I have ever felt so much extra play in a shifter assembly before. I can literally wiggle it around a good few inches with it in any gear. Do they sell a kit or anything to make things tight again? If so, can somebody recommend a place to get it all at?

My 1990 Bronco II has a ton of play in the steering wheel. I notice when I turn the wheel and look under the hood, that it turns the shaft quite a bit before it actually starts to turn the wheel. Do the shafts wear out on these or is the problem in the gearbox itself?

I just picked up a M5OD swap out of a 1991 Explorer to swap into my 1984 Bronco II. What I failed to grab was the mounting bracket for the clutch master cylinder. Am I stuck trying to find that bracket from another explorer or did Ford use the same bracket on the rangers and bronco II? If so...

I am swapping out the C5 in my 84 Bronco II for a M5OD out of a 1991 Explorer. When we took the transmission out of the explorer and went to seperate the transmission from the transfer case it was sealed together with RTV. It is obviously not a part of the transmission that is exposed to the...

I have a 1990 Bronco II that I plan to use to tow my other car on a dolly. The dolly has a 4 way flat plug and I picked up the other side of the harness to wire into the truck. Can sombody tell me which wires I need to tap into to make the lights function as they should? I appreciate the...

The truck is a 84 Bronco II, 2.8, C5 and 1350 manual T case. I'm installing a set of autometer guages including the speedo. I bought an adapter that replaces the factory speedo gear assembly in the transfer case in order to get the correct signal for the autometer guage. I can't seem to...

Need a little help putting my truck back together. 1984 Bronco II with the C5 3 speed auto trans. Does anybody have a picture of how this assembly looks all installed from under the truck? I have this one bracket that I can't for the life of me figure out where it goes. I know it is needed...

The truck is a 1984 Bronco II with the 2.8 and C5 3 speed auto trans. I was replacing the motor and removed all the linkage from my transmission and now I can't for the life of me figure out how it goes back together. I have this bracket which I took out and don't remember where it goes...

If you have seen any of my other posts I am in the process of putting my 84 bronco ii back together. The motor is back in the truck and I'm wiring everything up right now for the duraspark conversion. Here is my question. I have everything wired up except for the (+) positive side of the coil...

I'm in process of putting my 84 back together. The previous owner had used a canister type coil and I'm going to do the duraspark with the TFI coil. My truck is not equipped with AC and the canister coil was mounted onto the heater box assembly. I'd like to do the same with this TFI coil. I...

I'm putting together a new 2.8 for the Bronco II. I picked up a factory manual on CD that says to add gasket sealer to the matting surfaces. I also bought a complete gasket set but it doesn't have any sealer. What do you all recommend to coat the gasket with? Any specific brand and kind I...

I'm in the process of getting my bronco II ready to go back on the road come spring. I ordered most of the parts to redo the brakes but now I'm at the booster/master which needs to be changed out as well. All the parts I bought (caliper, brake hose, rotors, etc) are for a 1984 model. I was...
