an IH 4700 is a Very similar truck to an IH 3800 (the 4700 has a cab).. alot of IH 4700s came with manual transmissions.. that said most of them were slush-boxes.. non overdrive spicer 5 speeds.. occasionally a 6,
if I were going to go for a manual I would probably look at going Big and going for an 8 or 10 soeed with at least 1 or 2 OD gears.. a lot more involved to drive but much more versatile esp in the mountains..

Thank you so mush for replying. I will start my research on it all. I’m in Houston and really just need it to drive to Dallas and Austin not many mountains there. Currently my AT545 won’t shift into second. So as soon as my new filter arrives i’m changing the fluid and going from there. I’m not an engine guy so trying to figure it out. Bht i can mix a band infront of 80,000 people lol.
