The Zumbrota Drivetrain S5-42 is a remanufactured 5-speed manual transmission engineered for 1987-1992 Ford F-series trucks featuring the 6.9L or 7.3L diesel engines. This transmission is specifically designed for 2WD models and includes an 8-tooth speedometer drive gear, making it suitable for applications where a Power Take-Off (PTO) unit is in use. The S5-42 transmission is ZF built and features front and rear cases with an integral bell housing. Zumbrota Drivetrain emphasizes quality in its remanufacturing process, with units subjected to a rigorous three-stage inspection. This includes a pre-inspection to identify and address case cracks or excessive wear, a mid-process inspection to ensure all components meet OEM specifications, and a final post-build inspection to verify adherence to strict standards. Every internal part, including gears, mainshaft, and synchronizers, undergoes 100% inspection. To guarantee performance and reliability, all transmissions are dyno tested and run through various real-life scenarios before shipment. This transmission offers a gear ratio of 4.14 for low range and 0.77 for high range, providing a balance between pulling power and highway cruising efficiency. The ID codes associated with this unit include 1307-050-035, 1307-050-038, 1307-050-057, E8TA-ARA, E8US-AB, E9TA-YZ, and E9TA-ZA, with Hollander numbers 400-02275A and 400-02276A. This makes it a direct replacement or upgrade for the specified Ford applications. A core charge applies to this remanufactured transmission, which is refundable upon the return of your old, salvageable part. Please review the core return instructions for details. Expedited shipping options are available at checkout, with most orders expected to deliver within 1-2 days.
