yeah, what fatweed said. along with ya can't hear yerslf scream, and they are just "giving away" diesel fuel. switch to a later model year differential and keep the clark 5 spd. yagonna keep the compressor just to shift the splitter on the tranny? why???? you have a chance to do something unique and really useful here. or something unique and nearly useless because you ain't got the money to drive the thing, and it tops out at 37 1/2 miles per hour. a big truck with a 4:11 gear tops out about 65 m.p.h. with a direct tranny--------and great big wheels.

something to consider, ain't it?
