CONFUSED ON TRANSMISSION TYPES

Post by dvdsorrow »

I HAVE A 68 F100 2WD WITH GRANNY GEAR TRANSMISSION REVERSE IS OVER AND UP
I JUST GOT A 72F100 4WD WITH GRANNY GEAR REVERSE IS OVER AND DOWN {BOTH TRANSMISSIONS ARE OVER TO THE RIGHT}
THE 68 SEEMS TO HAVE A SLOWER GRANNY GEAR AND SLOWER REVERSE IS THIS RIGHT,AND COULD ANYONE ID THESE TWO DIFFERENT TRANNIES

No one can ID them unless you provide enough information.

AND GET RID OF THE ALL CAPS!!

Hello David
The over and down tranny is a NP435, lots of info about here on the site, the over and up is a T-18, again, lots of info about it if you'll search a little. Both excellent transmissions though.
1965 F-100 300-6 working on it, wanted a first year Twin I-Beam 300, now I gots one
1971 F-100 Custom 302 C4
1962 F-100 Custom Cab 292 3 on the tree, restoring, probably gonna sell it I guess. Love the engine.
1972 Maverick 2 DR 250 I-6, C4, restoring.
1978 F-150 always wanted one of these too. 300, 3+1 OD trans, pretty well preserved, working on it
1985 F-350 460 crew cab, rough as a cob

All these are southern Arizona desert trucks, little to no rust, but the sun takes its toll,ha.

Thanks for the info everyone,didnt mean to offend anyone with my caps locked,thats a bad habit of mine when typing ,im not very good at it.Ihave found several discussions about the 2 transmissions,but they get a little confusing.I have found only one that seems to point toward the np435 being faster geared than the t18.
Thanks david

You've been here for a couple weeks with 26 posts and now your a mod? Look around, this board isn't the HAMB. Be polite.

Doggonit, they changed where the reverse is so much, there's no ID-ing it that way.
Get the tags off 'em, don't mix 'em up and type out what the ID tags say. :)

Might as well get the tags off the rear axles too while you're at it. ;)
The two upper tags are rear axle tags. (Ford 9 inch)
The two lower tags are transmission tags. (Warner T18)
