I was thinking of trying to locate a New Process 5 speed with O/D for my Stude truck to replace the 4 speed it has now. I was wondering what all would be needed to do this swap. I have heard that the bell housings for the 4 speed are different from the 5 speed. Is this correct? What, if anything else, is different and what would I have to locate besides the transmission. Another option would be installing a later model trans out of some other type of truck. Has anyone ran across an easy swap? My truck is an R16. I dont think the Ford car transmission would hold up. Maybe something out of a brand X 1 ton truck?
