Some are mechanical speedo,s & one is laying there just to cut a couple of cables & drag it out.

I was researching improving my 3/4 ton driveline earlier today.
There could be a T5 in my future.

Got any NV4500's down there (2WD)? I'll be looking for a H/D overdrive for my COE in the near future. They have the PTO drive on them still, right? I'm still gonna need my hydraulics,
Scott | | | | | Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 1,317 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 1,317 | Just a thought....when you grab your T5, be sure to get the driveshaft too. With my Camaro Diff. and 85-T5, relocating the spring perches back 1" to center the wheel in the wheel well, would let you use the stock S10 driveshaft without modification. You need the front yoke anyways and the rear S10 is compatable with the Camaro yoke. Even if you don't run a Camaro diff. you can use the 2 yokes. I love a bolt-up!!!!
Also, on the mechanical T5's there is a little
adaptor that screws into the speedo fitting. It lets you swap little gears to calibrate your speedo. You'll need that too! Hope this helps.

Scott It,s pretty rare when one of the larger trans. show up in those places & they are already gone whenever I see the trucks.

Thanks,

So if you want an overdrive, and a stock look...

U pick it.....Oh the memories of lying on your back in the gravel with strangers stepping over your legs.....  Better wear your booties cuz its cold out there!!! That portion of the floorboard is a removable/replaceable piece is it not? | | | | | Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 Riding in the Passing Lane | | Riding in the Passing Lane Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 | I put a 4 speed shift lever on mine & it looks like factory 4 speed. Plan C would be an auto o-drive.
