salans7 Posted May 3, 2020 Author Share Posted May 3, 2020 As my father would say, you are going to keep us in suspenders and not tell us? I can tell you now. Today I picked up a 1987 Borg Warner T19 mated to a Borg Warner 1356. It came with the shifters, linkage, two pressure plates, a flywheel, the floor inspection cover, and boots. It was removed from a retired (in 2019) F350 brush truck in favor of a ZF5 swap. The best part is, the truck only has 54,000 miles. Super nice seller, and I mentioned the site to him. He said he had heard of it, and I told him if he ever had any questions about his 87 C&C to drop on by and join up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salans7 Posted May 3, 2020 Author Share Posted May 3, 2020 Well, that all looks hauntingly familiar! What's he using for a TC now? It's hauntingly heavy, that's for sure. I believe he's probably running the 1356 that came with his ZF5. I did verify that this is the heavy duty 1356 with PTO as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That truck must have some tales to tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep! He told me it belonged to a fire department up here in north Florida, and he bought it less than a year ago. He also had a super cool 1950 Ford F-3? Fire Truck that was a Marmon Harrington conversion. I have a thing for old Ford fire apparatus so it was really cool to see. What's funny is that I read the PTO transfer case was an option on Diesel trucks, but this was on a C&C 460. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soooo, are you installing a 20k winch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just gonna turn the truck into a tractor at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I didn't know there were HD versions of the 1356, nor one with a PTO. Cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E-One is a less than reputable company here. E-One and Lockheed Martin are great jobs until the contracts are completed and you're laid off.
