Yet another VIN thread
On F500 and larger trucks, it can be located either inside the glove box door, or on the left door face below the latch (same as the pickups).
I posted some pics in a new thread. Thanks.
I have a 64 F750 that Im trying to Identify the transmission in so I can replace the synchronizer I found the pieces of laying in the bottom of her.
vin number:
F75KU567042
warranty plate information:
132 F750 F81B M H7 E
Net Hp - 176 @ 3800
DSO: 241039
Information on side of Transmission:
218016
K - CA - ER
Shift Pattern:
2 OD R

At first I thought I would have a borg warner t98a but there's a PTO opening on both the drivers side and the passengers side which made me think a new process. However the shift pattern is lending me heavily towards a clark.
I have a 61-66 series donor truck that I'm wondering if I could use the transmission out of?
her information is:
Serial number Trans Axle
F600N281186 F F 2
W B Color Model
174 J F600
Max G V W lbs Cert Net HP RPM DSO
17000 135 (or 155) 5800 24
Both trucks live at the family farm 4 hours south of the big city of Atlanta where I work and live. Any information you could give me from those numbers on both the F750 keeper and the F600 donor could save me several road trips now as well as in the future and would be greatly appreciated.
Also is there a chance the steering box from the F600 would be the same part as is in the F750?
Out of curiosity and wanting to be able to find this information on my own: Where is it that you get this information for the bigger trucks? FTE forum is the best resource I"ve found online so far for the classics but it doesn't have a lot of the little things for the bigger trucks that pop up continuously. Are yall looking in the shop manuals that I keep seeing mentioned? If so, where can I get one of my own?
Thank you again,
Emory,

I assume your present gearbox has "oceans" of play in it by now.
I may be able to find the internal parts new, saving you from buying one of those new gearboxes from high buck obsolete parts seller Green Sales.
