How much more? there are currently 3 Spicer 5 speeds for sale locally for around $200.

If I had the time there is a grain truck for $900 with a 10 speed that would be worth it in parts alone, but its 3 hours away.

I just bought an RTO 610 for $1200. Maybe too much but it's in and it works!!
My bus finally drives like it should!
