Gdads51, your good!!! I actually found the plate yesterday when I was disconnecting all the linkages and wiring from engine for pulling it out. It's a spicer cm5250-c. Indeed 1:1 drive. Not bad tho it's got an even lower low gear then my 465 and ple ty of splitting between, it looks to be WAY heavier duty forsure. Can't wait til I can get it shoved in my truck.... that's for another time tho. I did have some questions about that transmission tho, the pto Ports it has are 2 different sizes, passenger side is a 8bolt style and the drivers side is a 6 bolt which almost looks like my 465 trans pto bolt pattern. I'm wondering if my pto is compatible with this trans? If not I'll be on the hunt for the 8 bolt style as that's the side my dump trucks pump is on. However if my 6 bolt pto could fit the driver side port I may see if I can shift it over some.
The fire truck does not have the t170 rear end. It's a single speed square tube axle behind a auxiliary transmission so I have no clue what gearing it is. And I don't have the patients to think about trying to do that swap. I'm fine with my t170 2 speed I can do 55-60mph on highway with 9.00-20s and I'm about to have some 10.00-20's to swap out so I might gain 5 mph top end speed or at least drop my rpms down a tad at 55-60mph. But i do think there is another grain truck out there at the scrap yard with a t170 rear end that I could get...first i gotta spend the money I already had spoken for on this part of my project haha. If I had deeper pockets to reach in I'd get tons of parts just to have them cuz I'm that kind of loonytune.
