Transmission / Overdrive: T9 4spd weight

[Old Radio Tech]

Trying to find out the weight of the T9 4spd transmission in my 49 2R5.

If that is the same transmission as used in the M16 trucks, the answer is: "^%$#% heavy". Over 150 pounds, at a guess.

My T9 was heavy enough that I had to use the engine hoist to get it lifted and bolted up to the engine stand.

If you have a choice and can, don't use the T-9, get a Borg Warner T-98 4 Speed, for newer Studes. Much better with Syncros in all but Compound low.
