8 rib pulley swap info

sonicblue · September 13th, 2007, 01:51 PM

just incase anyone is going to do this swap...you can get all the pulleys off a ford f150 i believe 98 and up, however the alternator and idlers wont work unless you get a alternator off the truck or cobra and do a few other things. you can get all the pulleys from ford and vortech will sell you individually what you need to complete it alternator and idlers. everyone else wanted to sell me the whole kit and wouldnt break it down to just what i needed. i dont know how much of this makes sense cause i typed it fast. but basically buy everything from ford and get the idlers and alternator pulley from vortech, unless you have a vortech blower then get everything from vortech. blahhh iim done

Any chance of getting the part numbers for this from the ford parts you bought?

I need to do this swap myself...

i know there is a company that is kinda like partners with modular powerhouse, that will sell a complete kit of everything it takes to do the swap, and its priced pretty well also

ChrisJ · September 13th, 2007, 01:55 PM

Yeah G.I Joe 8 Rib Set-Up

Its cheaper to go with the ford pulleys and just buy the idler and blower pulleys from vortech...

sonicblue · September 13th, 2007, 02:03 PM

yea i will try to get those numbers for ya. its either a 98 and up or a 99 and up f150 you get them off of. i will try to get the exact part numbers later

ChrisJ · September 13th, 2007, 02:08 PM

Not a problem bro...

I appreciate it...

Plus if anyone ever searches it on here they will find it with the part numbers as well...

Thanks
Chris

I dont have his # on me, but you need to call Liberty Ford in Maryland. Ask for Randy Stinchcomb. That is who I went through for my setup. Came with absolutely everything I needed, except for the blower pulley, which I got from Procharger. Everything was @ $350.00

When it comes to pulleys and idlers, I would stick to OEM Ford.

sonicblue · September 13th, 2007, 03:04 PM

the truck ford oem pulley wont fit on a gt alternator. the truck pulley on the back has a lip that slides into the alternator same as the cobras. the gts alternator pulley isnt designed like that. to make it work you have to get the front cover from a truck,alternator and a couple other little things. most of these kits use ford oem pulleys accept for the idlers and alternator. unless there is antoher ford vehicle you can get them off of that i dont know about.

ChrisJ · September 13th, 2007, 05:47 PM

Well see one of my close friends works at a local ford dealership and gets me stuff at his price...Randy has some mark up on the parts but I am sure that is somewhat becuase of shipping and such...

Marc@UPR · September 13th, 2007, 08:09 PM

Randy's # is 410-655-2000

If you dont buy them from him, he will at least give you the part #s. Then you can post them up here and anybody with a local Ford part hookup can get them....Then everyone would have a resource here to find that kind of info.

ChrisJ · September 14th, 2007, 09:23 AM

I will try and find the parts over on Modular Depot...They have them listed somewhere over there I believe...

Not knocking Randy in any way...He gives people a hell of a deal on everythign he sells...

So do you have to do an A/C delete when you convert? Or does that pulley change out as well?

sonicblue · September 14th, 2007, 11:57 AM

nope you can keep the ac. you can get that pulley off the truck from ford.
