Hi All,
I have a couple of questions about rebuilding a T86 E 1A. Ive looked around to find another thread about this to no avail.
1. Are the gears from a Jeep, Ford, etc, T86 the same as Studebaker gears. My guess is no but I'm not a tranny guy and that the gear ratios may be different. I have read that the T86 in trucks are geared differently.
2. I have read about putting T90 gears in the 86 case. Is this a reasonable thing to do? Also, is the suffix(E 1A) a date code or ????
I think I probably need to replace the 2nd gear and syncro. I haven't opened the case yet since I want to get some advice first.
Thanks in advance for your help.
