I have a '68 Bronco and want to make the 4BT swap but I'm torn with what trans to use. I went next door to the Ford dealer (I work for Toyota) and one of the techs showed me a ZF trans from a powerstroke he had just pulled and the thing was huge, too much I'm thinking (size/weight) for the small early Bronco (just over 4k lbs. I think). I may have been looking at an unpreferred year, this one had a circular hole for the slave cyl.
Basically I am looking to find out what would be good for a 4BT/5 spd. overdrive/Dana 20 combo. I'm not into rock crawling or abusing this rig since it's been in the family since new, just a strong/somewhat light trans. for commuting mostly, but that will handle a mildly pumped 4BT and some light off-road/towing use.
Also I should be looking for a 4BT with a t-19 or whatever ford manual trans., right?
