Overdrive transmission
Just wondering if anyone has succesfully installed one of these overdrive transmissions into one of our trucks, 2X2 or 4X4. I have wanted to get the RPM’s down and leave the driveline gears alone but the price and modifications were just to expensive to warrant the change.

Hey Snort:
What type of engine and trans are you now running? If you have a C-4 or C-6 trans, you can leave the trans attached as is and add a gear-vendor over/under splitter to the tail. It will cut your RPM by 25% at the final drive and give you more like a six speed trans in the process. Just a thought.

Here is a really good site with a few options. I will be purchasing a ranger unit for my 69 Highboy Crew Cab with a FE and 435.
