Propeller Drive Shaft
CAUTIONS:
Make sure that an inhibitor is fitted
to any modified vehicle that uses
the prop-shaft to power auxillary
equipment.
The only modification to the engine
control system (throttle, powertrain
control module and fuel pump)
recommended by the manufacturer
is the addition of an engine (RPM)
controller.
Do not weld or join onto any part of
the axle assembley.
The transmission oil temperature
must not exceed 130° during
operation of the Power Take Off
Where power is to be taken from the prop-shaft
for accessory drive, the engine controller can be
used in the same way as for the Front End
Accessory Drive (FEAD).
Refer to: 3.3 Accessory Drive (page 77).
Exceeding the recommended power take off
ratings may result in the engine over heating.
If the driveshaft is modified, it must be balanced
to a limit of 80gmm at 5000rpm and the
installation must not have universal joint angles
exceeding 4°. The gearbox output included angle
must be no more than 1°.

In addition to the fuses and relays fitted to the
Pre Fuse Box (PFB), Engine Junction Box (EJB)
and Central Junction Box (CJB), depending on
vehicle options, there may be up to 3 relays
mounted directly to the Heating, Ventilation and
Air-conditioning (HVAC) unit. These relays should
not be tampered with as they affect operation
of the associated system.
Heating, Ventilation and Air-conditioning (HVAC)
1 x 82GG-13A025-CAAir-conditioning
2 x 82GG-13A025-CAFuel-fired Heater without Air-conditioning
3 x 82GG-13A025-CAFuel-fired Heater with Air-conditioning*
*In addition to the relays, there is a diode 91AG-10374-B_
These relays have a different terminal
arrangement to those fitted throughout the rest
of the vehicle – if they need to be replaced, only
components with the same Ford part number
should be used.
Switches and their Illumination
The main instrument panel switches work in
conjunction with the Central Junction Box, and
are momentary action (non-latching) types. The
Central Junction Box is responsible for control
operation of the respective systems.
For any additional functions, unless the
interfacing module accommodates momentary
action switches, it is recommended that latching
types are used.
Three switches are available:
DescriptionFord Part Number
Rotary light (beacon)6C1V-13D768-A_
Rear work lamp6C1V-13D756-A_
Water faucet (heater)6C1V-19H218-A_
Search illumination for added switches can be
taken from any of the existing switches, by
connecting to the appropriate feed wire.

However, it is possible to add an additional lock(s)
– see also the section covering the ‘third button
on key fob’ – but only by utilizing relays (the
electric locks are operated by surface mounted
relays in the Central Junction Box – these are
only capable of powering one lock each, in
addition to which the output of these devices is
current-sensed to check it is within minimum and
maximum limits: I) to verify operation, and ii) as
part of the security system). For camper vehicles,
the Central Junction Box is configured for a
chassis cab vehicle.
Depending on functionality required, the pins
used will emulate the basic locking/unlocking
operation of an existing door. Note, however,
that any additional locks will not be covered by
the vehicle alarm or operate Central Junction
Box controlled lighting, etc. It would be necessary
to splice into either the Central Junction Box
connector or the in-line connector for the door
jumper harness. The coil of the relay (max.
300mA) should be added across the relevant
pin and ground (i.e. one relay for lock all, one
relay for driver door unlock etc.)
The use of Ford Transit lock mechanisms is
strongly recommended as the Central Junction
Box is designed to drive these latches for the
correct amount of time.

Locking Configurations- The following list
details specific locking scenarios that have been
noted by customers:
1.Raid locking or drive away locking for taxi and
parcel van usage – this is a configurable
parameter in the Central Junction Box (Ford
Dealerships can set this).
2.Slam locking – this is a configurable parameter
in Central Junction Box (marketing want to
sell this as an option, therefore dealerships
can only switch off this feature, but not switch
on).
3.N1 lock reconfiguration into M2 locking, i.e. no
deadlocks – this can be reconfigured to be
central-locking only by a Ford Dealer (via
Dealership hotline).

•It is recommended that the altered extension
has a similar closed section, material thickness
and properties to the existing chassis frame.
•An equivalent open section for the extension
assembly is at the vehicle converters
discretion.
•Lightening holes in new extension and cross
members are discretional.
•Do not weld original chassis frame except as
specified when adding reinforcing tubes,
please refer to Figure E745171.
•Do not drill the top or bottom surface of the
chassis frame, including the flanges turned
out, except as recommended above for
continuity of closure.
•Any alternative finish such as hot dip
galvanizing is at the discretion of the Body
Builder providing it does not have a detrimental
effect on the original Ford product.
Refer to: 5.10 Corrosion Prevention (page 221).
5.11.5 Frame Drilling and Tube
Reinforcing
The chassis frame may be drilled and reinforcing
spacer tubes may be welded in place, providing
the following is applied:
•Adhere to all details shown in Figure E74517.
•Drill and weld only side walls of the chassis
frame.
•Locate and drill holes accurately, using a drill
guide to ensure holes are square to frame
vertical centre line (note: allow for side member
draft angle).
•Drill undersize and ream out to size.
•Endeavor to remove all swarf from inside side
member, and treat to prevent corrosion.
•Fully weld each end of the tube and grind flat
and square, in groups if applicable. Be aware
of side member draft angle.
•Apply corrosion protection inside and outside
of the chassis frame.
Refer to: 5.10 Corrosion Prevention (page 221).
•Holes should be in groups of two (2), either
vertically spaced at 30 to 35mm from chassis
frame top and/or bottom surface, or
horizontally at 50mm minimum pitch, 30 to
35mm from top and/or bottom chassis frame
surface, please refer to Figure E74517.
•Always use M10 bolts with grade 8.8 minimum.
•Do not position tubes at the medium chassis
frame height, this may create “oil canning” of
the deep section side walls.
•Where possible, the outrigger moments should
be resolved by matching inner cross members
between the chassis side members inline with
the outriggers, please refer to Figure E74577-
Low Floor.
•A diameter of 16.5mm is the maximum
allowable hole size in the chassis frame side
wall, irrespective of the usage.
Avoid drilling into closed frame body members
to avoid the risk of corrosion from swarf.
Refer to: 5.10 Corrosion Prevention (page 221).
Drilling and welding of frames and body structure
have to be conducted following the program
guidelines. Please consult the Vehicle Converter
Advisory Service [email protected] for details.
5.11.6 Ancillary Equipment - Sub
Frame Mounting
Typical sub-frames and longitudinal members for
flatbed and low or drop-side bodies or equipment
exceeding the standard or Regular Production
Order frame length should adhere to the following
guidelines:
•Flat-beds and low bodies mounted on integral
longitudinal members (channel or box section
metal – not wood) must use both sides of all
frame mounting brackets, see Figure E74575.
•Longitudinal members must be relieved at the
front end if they are to contact the chassis
frame top surface, to minimize stress
concentrations, see Figure E74575. However,
it is preferable to mount the longitudinal onto
the mounting brackets, with a clearance to the
chassis frame top surface.
•Each set of brackets must use two (2) x M10
bolts grade 8.8 minimum.
•The rear two (2) sets of chassis frame
mounting holes / locations should have a full
bolt torque with 100% grip. The attachment to
the remaining forward chassis frame holes /
locations must be precisely located and
retained, but allow some relative flexing
between the sub-frame and chassis frame.
For example, clamp control devices such as
conical washer stacks or machine springs with
self locking fasteners.
•Minimum floor heights will require wheel arch
boxes to clear the rear tires, see Vehicle Data
sheets for relevant tire jounce.
•Chassis frame, for example: clamp control
devices such as conical washer stacks or
machine springs with self locking fastenings.
•Minimum floor heights will require wheel arch
boxes to clear the rear tires.
Pedestal mounted low or drop side bodies – (not
illustrated)
For bodies or equipment not exceeding the
standard or Regular Production Order chassis
frame length.
