Bongo Brawny Info & Service manual
Posted: Mon Jan 27, 2020 9:06 pm
Greetings all,
I just got a Bongo Brawny Diesel Engine and manual 4wd transmission that I intend to use in a street rod.
So, I have been looking for more information on the package. To my surprise, I am coming to a brick wall. The engine is a Japanese import. Since I am using it in a kit car, some particulars are not important. But I do need to know the year of the package. In the USA, this is usually derived from the VIN, and Model. Mine has a VIN of: SKF6M-100851. The original Model was: KR-SKF6M. However all over the engine, there is the coding of: RF6C.
And to make things even more interesting, I would like to replace the 4wd manual tranny for a 2wd/Rwd automatic tranny. This is because the kitcar is a classic 2wd Ford pickup with a dropped front axle. There is no way to make it 4wd, nor would I want to. I have been told from a mate in Australia, that there was an automatic, 2wd version made, but again, I need to know what year this engine is to get the correct tranny.
So, At this point, I need a year, (2002-2006 I presume), a 2.0 and/or 2.2 Turbo Diesel service manual, a throttle pedal sender and pigtail (for wire matching), and a list of possible automatic trannies that would fit. Please, if anybody can help with any or all of the list, it would be greatly appreciated.
