One of the benefits to being "in the business"

[mylittlecj5]

Is getting this paid for by scrapping out the rest of the truck...


Yep, thats what it says...



Sorry just had to gloat a little. I've been looking for this Transmission for quite a few years to install in my '74, and one of the reasons I went into the business was to find one...
Now, with the 'new' 360 I acquired and a few other parts I scavenged, all I need now is time to work on the thing!

I do have a question about it tho.
This is supposed to have the "Texas" bolt pattern like a Ford Transmission . But it doesn't look anything like the Ford Transmission patterns I am familiar with. The left side bolts are nearly vertical, and it looks like the right side might be also. Is this a different bolt pattern than normal, or something special with this Transmission ?
This is in a '78 CJ5 Renegade Levi (Edition) edition.

right side (bad pic I know)

Are you in the scrap metal business or just looking for jeeps?

We buy old project Jeeps and part them out. Whats left stays with us as inventory if we think it can be useful, but we do a little scrap hauling on the side as well.
