> Yes,Grant,that's correct on the LDT 465-1D/3000 hook up. On your
automatic quest,please be aware of two things: ANY medium duty truck
automatic that I am familiar with is longer than the Spicer 3000
and,therefore, will reguire relocation of the T-Case and driveshaft
alterations - - AND the Spicer 3000 that we get with our multi-fuel deuces
is already an overdrive(in 5th) box so the auto you mention won't GAIN that
feature for you. Not meaning to pour water on your parade,just FYI. RCA
D - - ,it's already over 50!!!
