A week ago, i bought a bell-Transmission-xfer assembly for $50, not really knowing what the hell it was (i had plans for using it in an improvised tractor) I didnt know what it was or what it came out of until i put the wire brush to it. This is where Jesse really started smiling. Turns out its of ford origin. Cast iron Bellhousing. FoMoCo cast into is behind the Starter boss. Wire brush te case. Big ol' NP castings jumpin out on the alu. cover an iron case. WOOHOO ---435!!! Next is the weird part. the transfer is a Dana oddball. A D21. I threw an AMC6 bell on it. perfect fit. input is flush with the edge of the bell. Bought a shifter for the 435 today $5. at worst, ive got a decent core to overhaul and throw adapters on an other Dana xfers... the 21s got bigger yokes too. 1350(?) series? Im happy. for 55 bucks it think i got a screamin deal on a 435.
I need some axles now then i visit the steel shop :twisted:
