Marti report T85

Post by Generalee0527 »

Well a Christmas gift Marti report says my 68 Ranger came with a T85 overdrive. Well as long as I've owned it (1985) it has been toploader 3 speed. It got updated with a 76 or 78 model 3 speed when I did a number on the second gear and had to replace the whole transmission. What little I know about them is my uncle had one in his truck and I recall it was speed dependent making it kinda complicated or as I thought as a teenager. No intention of locating one as there are too many options today for overdrive. Just wasn't expecting this surprise. Seems there were lots sold that way for economy reasons.
68 Ranger. 302 Clevor w/ 3 on tree, soon to have front disc brakes.
