I have an sm420 tranny that has the i.d. number:95948. It is off a 1967 3/4 ton so it has a back-up switch. On This tranny, reverse is to the passenger and down. Is this normal?

My late 40's and 50's model SM420's have this pattern
-- 1 3
R 2 4

If your reverse is on the passengers side, it is likely an SM465.
Does it have external cast ribs/bracing on the case? That indicates an SM465.

It only has one pto port though, I thought the 465 had two?

Thanks

except the novac site says reverse is to the left and down
and the one in my truck is to the left and down so how can it be
an sm420. by right do you mean while sitting in the drivers seat?

Okay nevermind, it is ot an sm420 or 465. The Ptoport is on the passegers side and first gear is like a 5.4 or so, its hard to tell. I found a symbol that reads NP, does this stand for New Process?
