The reason I went with a T-18 is availability and the 1st gear.
What I did want was the 6.32 first gear, good enough for me down here in the south (no rock crawling) with my Dana 20 , mud and trails are what I'm running in. The 5.11 in the T19 kinda turned me off, just not low enough for me when I would be in 1st.

Per Novak's site:
"The Ford and some Jeep T18s enjoys a very low compound gear at 6.32:1."
"T19 versions offer a 6.32:1 (IH), 5:1 or 4:1 (Ford) low gear."
The only difference I find is the T19 has synchronized 1st.

Exactly right, the t19 IH is a pain to find and unlike the Ford needs parts swapped around, I wasn't into that...

I have a T-19 out of a '79 ford truck w/ 6.32 low I rebuilt for my Scrambler. The benefit of syncos in 1st gear are questionable. You have to be going so slow anyway.
That is one nice

Thank's CJ, not much Jeep left. Mostly other parts now.

Figured it was an issue of availibility.
