Have you actually confirmed that it is an OD trans? Easiest way would be to jack up the read axle and mark the drive shaft then give the engine one 360 deg turn from TDC to TDC on the front pulley (with the tranny in OD). My experience with 20+ year old vehicles is that stuff can get changed around a good bit....what you see ain't always what you get [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img]

Could it be a shift knob (or even a tranny) from another truck? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img]

Keep us posted, if it is an original OD it would be pretty rare.

In theory, practice and theory are the same.
In practice, they are not.
