a friend of mine has a 1948-49 (not sure, no body) truck with the original driveline in it that he's gonna let me have, i went to check it out the other day and it appears to be a 1 ton truck with the original 216ci with the 4 speed on the floor, BUT i looked at the tranny and it is real small compared to the transmission in my 55 second series 1.5 ton, so i checked the shift pattern and it only had 3 gears + reverse,no 4th gear. i figure that one of the gears is stuck but before i assume the tranny needs work i figured that since its a 1 ton i thought i should ask in this section because y'all deal with them.....i've only dealt with big bolts blush
