I DON" HAVE A LOT OF MONEY TO SPEND AND THIS IS A WORKING TRUCK AND I NEED TO MINIMISE DOWNTIME. I HAUL 1000 GALLONS OF WATER WITH IT ONCE A WEEK. BESIDES THAT THE STOCK TRANSMISSION HAS 35K MILES ON IT AND WORKS PERFECTLY. THE GEAR SPACING IS IDEAL FOR SPLIT-SHIFTING WITH THE STOCK 2SPD REAR END,AND THE TRANSMISSION HAS THE EMERGENCY BRAKE MOUNTED ON THE BACK OF IT.

It will be a lot easier to use the matching and a much stronger transmission rather than the stock one. It`s not too hard to make a trans mount and to change the drive shaft, you`ll end up with a much better setup.
