That's the overdrive model of the ten speed. I'm in Sam Francisco CA - Closer the better.

Thanks

I'd be a little surprised if anyone here has one for offer, I'd check some truck junkyards.

I'm open to being surprised . Will also search the web and the yards.

Quick question, would changing the rear-gear ratio be objectionable? It would achieve the same end of greater top speed and lower RPM at a given speed. It may prove cheaper and easier than a transmission swap.

I can get the "chunk" re-done locally for about $850. Removal and re-installation is within the realm of DIY (adjusting the gears and everything is probably best left to experienced experts).

Pardon my lack of knowledge on this subject, but are you referring to the stick shift RTO. I don't remember where of course, but within the past couple days I've seen one. It was removed from a roll-off truck with about 186,000 miles while still in working condition, replaced with a different type of transmission.

I'll look for it. The photo was really poor and it's in an add that didn't look like anything important. Easy to miss.

If it came out of a rolloff it's probably a heavier RTO. An 11908LL or an 11613.
