    Adapter and spline count for Ford 4R75 auto trans. to NP273F TC

    I had to put this project on hold for about a year and a half while I worked on other more pressing matters. I'm just now getting back to it. Right now I am working on rebuilding/regearing front Dana super 60, and rear Sterling 10.5 to use 4.56 gears. I will start looking into the...

    Moog CC880S coils

    I did a search and found this site: https://www.racingaspirations.com/apps/suspension-geometry-calculator/ This is probably not going to do everything you had hoped to be able to do, but it's kind of interesting. I'm going to play around with this later when I have some free time. Sent from...

    Moog CC880S coils

    Have you tried searching for a suspension kinematics app? I'll bet someone's written one. Even if you have to pay a little bit of money for it, it might be worth it... Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

    Moog CC880S coils

    Good point on the center pivot. I overlooked that in making my comments. I was only comparing the lengths of the radius arm between the 2WD vs. The 4WD configurations. My point was a simplified focus on the spring stiffness. The additional pivots in the center will add another plane of rotation...

    Moog CC880S coils

    The only difference the length of the radius arm is going to make, is in how far the axles move forward and aft for a given vertical displacement. It will have no effect at all on the spring rate or spring force. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

    Moog CC880S coils

    I have the 5.4 L, and I bought the CC880S springs. Haven't installed them yet, but sounds like I might have to swap them to lighter springs. Thanks for the tip. By the way, Raul is right about the springs calcs. I was going to post the same thing, and then saw he had already posted it. Sent...

    So the CC860 has been suggested for the vans with the 5.4 L V8. Can anyone explain what the difference is between that, and the CC860S? Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

    Thank you. I also found a lot of individual parts here: https://www.dennysdriveshaft.com/c2744_dana_60_front_ford_2005_and_newer.html#c2763-DIFF_BEARINGS_and_SHIMS Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

    Thanks for confirming MG. I figured I was okay. Are the F450 and F550 axles wider because of the DRW? Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

    This is the kit I have. It uses a dana 60 from an '05 to '16 Ford Super duty truck: https://expovans.com/conversions/e-series/ I have front and rear axles from a 2014 F350. I know that the super 60 uses different parts than the kingpin 60. I am looking for recommendations from anyone who has...

    Source for Dana super 60 master rebuild kit?

    I don't think so. The MG kits (which I have) is designed to use the super 60. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk
