Check the fluid, when I first put the tranny in I went to get a new used driveshaft instead of my homemade shortened one. Drove to the city about a hour away cause no one had the length I needed around here and lo and behold I ran out I fluid trying to find the place. Lets just say It was a great experience when I was trying to learn standard lol.

and a rebuilt transmission. but im not 100% sure the frame isnt bent, i dont think it is, but id be pretty pissed if i have $800 worth of body parts to put on and find out the frame is bent after pulling the cab or something. but i am looking for a 96 with a blown engine/transmission or just a cheap f150 with high miles.

Part way to the floor, has fluid(first thing I checked) pedal has been acting weird for a while now, getting closer to the floor before disengaging, drove it to work this am and when I left foot went all the way down,, I'm kinda thinking master cylinder, but not sure? The fluid is suppose to be at the bottom of the diaphragm correct?
