the M5OD-R2 swap
start off with the basics my truck has a 300 straight six and a t-18 4 speed and with the ford nine rear end that is about as bullet proof and reliable of a stock drive line as you can get. But 2600 rpms at 65 is not exactly desirable. so my options were: put a 5 speed in it, a torque splitter over ...

Re: 5 speed swap or over drive???
No I don't need the creeper first. What transmission did you swap in? Taller tires are a option but to equal a over drive I would have to get some where in the mid 30s (32-35) so that is out. I do a lot of highway driving 20 miles to work every day and towns in Kansas are few and far between so I'm ...
