3000rds alllison to dt360 help needed

[Topnotchmarine]

Hi everybody I am in dire need of som help I am in the middle of swapping my 5 speed spicer for a 3000rds allison I can't figure out after hours of searching what flexplate and spacer I need to use if anybody has any info it would be greatly appreciated

from what I know, the 3000 is an SAE2 trans and has the same offset as an MT-643.. you would need the same flexplate as an MT643.. although im going from swapping out an AT545.. my DT360 book is too old to show the 3000s.. but from what I understand the 3000s were designed to fit in place of an MT-643..

your flexplate will be the same as a DT466.. they are equals..



this is the flexplate i used to swap my AT545 out for an MT643.

Navistar part 467037C1. in my case the spacer got removed altogether and the flexplate fit right on the flywheel then I put the "washer ring" on top of the flexplate, used shorter bolts..



again im not familiar with going from a spicer.. just an AT545..



be careful not to buy a flexplate for a DT-466E (which is where most of the 3000s ended up_.. the DTA360/ DT466 mechanicals have an 8 bolt crankshaft hub.. the DT-466E has a 12 bolt..

Thank you cleared about 95% of my question up. Although I'm not sure what the washer ring you speak of is? Yes you are right I had taken this 3000 off of a 466e it is in fact 12 bolt and mine is 8. Thank you for your response it is appreciated

It was a great trans but I haul boats for a living in the city 90% of the time and up and down boat ramps just a lot easier I think with an automatic
