This is a 2015 (Coyote) 6R80 bolted directly to the 351W. Three original bellhousing bolt holes line up; plus, the two alignment dowels line up. I'll probably re-design the alignment dowel closest to the starter to allow the 351W bellhousing bolt to pass thru the dowel and engage threads in the Windsor block. Then, there will be 4 bellhousing bolts.

There's still a lot to figure out.

how about for the starter you cut the little bit of ear off and use a sleeve for the alignment then run a bolt through the sleeve? another thing is clearance issues for the starrter being clocked in that position.

No adapter and no spacer is necessary to mate a coyote 6r80 to a windsor.

With some minor modification, the alignment dowels can be altered to allow a bolt to pass thru and catch threads in the windsor block. Carrying out this mod would result in 5 out of 5 bellhousing bolts being used.

Any updates? currently rounding up parts/info to do this swap

 

[SHOme]

I plan on mounting one in my chassis in the near future. I will share my experience as I go.

 

[Burntoutaccountant]

Any updates on this? What transfer case ended up being used?

 

[Hillbilly Heaven]

No updates from me. I had been hoping to already have all my needed parts. I have been sidelined for a few months and maybe a few more.

I am going to try to use the BW 4419 from the same truck the trans came from. I will have to deal with the slip joint somehow. I will see If I can have a flange plate welded on to the female end of the slip joint and then drill and tap a hole in the output shaft of the xfer case. I will then be able to bolt it on and use my stock driveshaft. I also need to get a wiring diagram for the shift motor and see if I can wire it to my switch on the dash. This may get blown up by unforeseen issue but its my plan as of now.

I may or may not have stolen these from this very thread, but from the drawings it looks fairly easy to make the new t-cases work. Transfer case to controller can likely use part of the harness for the original truck

 

[SHOme]

Thanks if these were in this thread I'm an idiot. Thanks I have been searching for them.

 

[SHOme]

I just messaged Tumbling Automotive. They have an adapter that they said "should" work for the BW 1356. I'm going to be the guinea pig unless someone has tried it already? If this works it will be more cost effective than trying to use the BW4419.

Shit let me know. That's exciting. The transfer case was the whole issue I haven't done this swap. I couldn't find a transfer case to work or I overlooked something.

10-4. I'm pretty psyched. I hope it's not a let down.

Got this from

Hellwig 68 Bronco Project

This is a build I'm doing for work and I have a couple threads going for this on Pirate and Classic Broncos. The people on those forums have a lot of opinions but I have no idea if they are master fabricators or drive a Prius and just watch the Top Truck Challenge DVDs. I figured I'd post up...

forum.ih8mud.com

It looks like it will work. I will order one Tuesday. Fingers crossed.

 

[Rodan]

This thread is very relevant to my interests.

Having recently had the opportunity to compare the E4OD in our Bronco directly to the 8 speed auto in a Jeep in similar trail conditions, having the extra ratios in the lower gears is really nice.

My understanding is that the 6R80 shares bellhousing and output flange patterns with the 10R80, which is what I'd really want, if I'm going to spend the money/effort. With 7 ratios between a 4.69 low gear and 1.00 seventh, just about any terrain will have a proper gear. All we need is for Ford (or someone) to put out a programmable, universal controller. AIUI, the current Ford controller will only work with a late model Coyote.

Then again, a 6.2 Coyote with the 10R80 and a 1356 bolted onto the end would be a pretty nice setup...

 

[Hillbilly Heaven]

Tumblin and Advanced Adapters worked hand in hand to develop the 6R80 to Atlas adapter. You can buy it from either place. The Atlas bolt pattern is the same as the Ford 6 bolt round pattern. One thing to be aware of when fitting the Atlas adapter, it has been mentioned that "something" is too short. What that something is, is unknown. One possibility is the adapter itself is too short and the shaft bottoms out before the flange mates to TC. Cure is to use a flange spacer from AA. They are available in 1/2, 3/4, and 1 inch thick. You want to the closest one that is greater than the gap between adapter and TC.

When you do fit up please post some pics . If the transfer case does mate to the adapter flange without spacers or after needing spacer, you will want to measure how much of the tailshaft spline is engaged. Simply grease the splice before test fit. Slide the transfer case up till the flange touches TC and then slide the transfer case back off. Measure from end of tailshaft to the grease ring or line. I know this will require removing the adapter so you can measure. You are hoping for 1 to 2 times the shaft size of spline engagement. More the better of course.

You are in a position to help us all out. You can provide lots of confirmation and possibly solve the something to short rumor.


Those that want the 10R80 the development is still ongoing with a standalone controller. Last update I had is that it is in the Alpha stage. Focused had temporarily shifted back to the 6 speed controller for some updates to the display and memory module that had proven to be unreliable. Don't get scared. There was very few memory modules failed but enough that the developer wanted to make an update.

Also for anyone wishing for a nice recessed mount that hides all the wiring for the US Shift controller Someone is now offering a 3D printed mount.

There maybe one more style being printed that is flush mount rather than recessed.

 

[snowman429]

I just started the process of putting a coyote in my 93. I ordered the 6r80 to atlas adapter through BC Broncos. It should be here Tuesday and i should be getting the 6r80 Wednesday. I'll post up how it all fits together by the end of the week.

 

[SHOme]

Looking forward to it.

 

[SHOme]

I just talked to advanced adapters again. I had talked to them last year and they said I would need to cut the input on my Bw1356 to get the atlas adapter to work. Today I noticed they have some spacers listed so I called to inquire. I was told a 3/4 inch spacer would be needed to make it work. Great news but they are out of stock on the spacer until Dec 29. Anyone here have a CNC machine that could make a spacer?😀

 

[SHOme]

The flange on the bw4419 that I took off is 3/4". Hmmmm

 

[Hillbilly Heaven]

Look for a local CNC machine shop take them the adapter and the TC case. They can make you one in no time. Main thing is to make sure it is concentric and the locating registers and shoulders are proper. You might want to check back with AA and see if they have the 1/2 inch in stock. It will be similar and they can copy a thicker version for you. Your problem is probably the one thing I was referring to earlier. Yeah the spacer is a much better solution than cutting off the input shaft of the TC. It would make it a one off.
