First, sorry for all the M5ODR2 posts......I'm almost done with the conversion.....Well clutch is next so many a couple more.
I'm in the process of building my crossmember and it's time to figure out the angle of the dangle. As I recall the Bronco trans has like 3 degrees slop towards the rear? I did put an angle finder on the Explorer EFI intake badge plate before I took everything apart and it read 3 degrees.
Is the collective opinion to put the T-case as close to the floor as possible or factor in a slop on the engine.
Right now I have the T-case (which is cocked to the middle holes on the AA to D20 clocking ring) 1/2 inch from the floor brace it's now under due to the extra length. Angle finder on the intake (same spot) shows 4 degrees. Should I be more worried about D-shaft angles or the engine slope? How close is too close to the floor?
