yep, the end of the 95 4.0L has a big ole hole in it!
At the time I put it together I oculd not find the information to get the "correct" piece.
Now, I know what I need and actually have one in a spare block.
If I was bound and determined to keep the current setup in place I would take it apart and use the correct adapter with the correct sized roller bearing in it as it was shared by the AX15 in the early years so I have the right one now.
For the ford swap I plan to get a roller bearing, or maybe just the bushing, probably try for the bearing.
Then I'll press the AX15 spec bearing out of the adapter and have it machined to take the Ford sized bearing if needed.
   I guess I can get that done.
It will be a start.
