I have had troubles finding a suitable transmission for this truck at first I was wanting to run a fuller 6 speed however I have not been able to get the cost of this swap below $5000 and I just won’t spend that much nor can I at this point. Now after much research I believe I have found a cost effective alternative in a 5 speed over drive 3053A Spicer. Here is a link to an article that spotlights this swap I am sure that there is many Big Bolters that will find it the answer to there gearing whose.
