WELCOME,wateverpratt!! Just read your post on the O.D. swap! NICE!! I have an SM 420,in mt T.F. '55 6500,and I'd like a nice,inexpensive swap. I "lost" a bid on "fleabay",for a Clark "O.D." unit,and may be for a reason. Your NV 4500,is about 1/2 the price of that trans. I was bidding on,and that was without the cross member,linkage,or shifter. You got yours installed,for the price that I would have been paying for parts,and that doesn't cover hidden expenses,such as:trans. fluid,etc.! WELL-DONE!! THANKS!!
