Anyway, the T5 on 4WD truckes have a large hole at the output end. Has anyone tried to mutate a torque-tube ball onto the back of one of these trannies?
Current fleet (subject to change w/o notice) \'49 GMC 3/4-Ton , 60 Austin Healey Frog-eye Sprite (some assembly required), 2011 Dodge Avenger, 2015 Jeep Cherokee. No, they don't all run. My other ride is a (B737)no, (B767)no, A320.... Update... was Embraer E190, now Boeing B787. Knowledge is a wonderful thing, but ignorance means you don't know you can't do something.

Are you talking about the opening with the transfer case removed? If you do use the T5 with the transfer case removed you would have no opportunity to use a speedometer. The 4x4 tailhousing does not have a place to install a speedo cable, it is on the transfer case. On the 2wd the tailhousing does include the speedometer connection.
There is no mechanical problem so difficult that it can not be overcome by brute force and ignorance.
