56 transmission
Hi guys
I have a 56 f-100 with a 272 and 3 on the column I'm in the process of getting the engine rebuilt and wanted to have the transmission cleaned and new seals and gaskets Can someone help me identify the trans and tell me what all I will need? The catalog is showing two trans for that year I'm taking the parts with the trans so want to make sure I get the correct parts
Thanks for any help!

That is the standard issue Ford transmission. If you are going to tear into it, now is a great time to consider adding overdrive. This was an option in pickups between 53 and 71. In you case you want the normal overdrive as used in smaller engine Ford cars and pickups. There are some differences in the overdrive transmissions used over the years. If you are interested in this, keep us up informed and we can help you get the right parts.
