IH Scout T-18 Transmission

[CJ jammin]

Does any one know if a T-18 from an IH Scout bolt up to a jeep bell housing? I have a AMC 304 in an '80 CJ7 . I'm sure the input shaft will need replaced and it originally had a Dana 20 T/C bolted up to it. Thanks..

No
The scout bellhousing bolt pattern is different.
Also the TCase mounting is different even though the Scout also used a Dana 20 and then a Dana 300

Here is what they say

IH T-18
This Transmission is a good unit, but not recommended for Jeep conversions due to its unique input shaft and front, stud-mounted style front face.

That was a good read. Put it my Jeep Tek favorites folder. Guess I need to scour the junk yards and old farms.
