Welcome! You've come to the right place. Glad you joined.
 Show us some pics of the truck? (See Bullnose Forum/Forum FAQ's for how to post pics.) Where's home? I ask because we have a map (Bullnose Forum/Member's Map in the menu) and can add you with a city/state or zip.

Welcome! Glad you joined.
An 80 Bronco is a cool vehicle. Is it from the US or was it made elsewhere? And, we have a map, which you can see at Bullnose Forum/Member's Map in the menu. Would you like to be on it?

Welcome Daniel!
What are your summers like, there at the end of the continent? Most of us here only get a picture of Patagonia or Tierra del Fuego from an exotic travel brochure.

Hi, new member here. Looking for some help. I had to replace my transmission with an np 435. I can’t seem to get it to slide all the way in. It lacks about 3/8 to 1//2 inch from sliding into place. I’ve tried it 8 different times now and I don’t want to force it. I had a RTS AJ transmission that no parts were available for it. Supposedly the NP should fit. I rebuilt the NP, put new input shaft on it. Also, put in new pilot bearing, flywheel, clutch, pressure plate and throw out bearing. The alignment tool fits all the way in and I’ve measured the input shaft. It looks like everything should fit. I can start the bolts on the transmission to the bell housing, but I don’t know if I should force it in. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Doug

Welcome Doug!
Where are you from? (just a city or zip code) I would have said the transmission input is not entering the crankshaft pilot bush, but you say that the dummy shaft (alignment tool) slips all the way in, and it would be obvious if the gearbox shaft had a bigger pilot than the tool. 💡 I'm not super familiar with the NP gearboxes, so I'm going to suggest that you create a new topic on the main page, where more people will see it than in this obscure corner of the New Members section. Once again, thanks for becoming a member of our little community!
