speaking of clutch forks, lol
it appears there is no difference between my 1974 one and one for a 1982 model, at least according to AutoZone, their part number is CF-100 for both and they reference the same O.E.M. #14066235 for both any thoughts or comments from you all on that? I am going to check on the throwout bearing next I am thinking can I just remove my 3,000 pound Muncie SM465 and bolt up my new beauty New Process 440 / 833 to my old bellhousing and keep the clutch guts inside undisturbed? that would make a short order out of this ordeal |

things get interesting when comparing throwout bearings, again using AutoZone (don't judge me) their website is great for this kind of stuff unlike some parts stores (I'm looking at you NAPA)
anywho, for 1974 they list 4 different ones, for 1982 they list 2 different ones, interstingly enough 1 is the same for both years, go figure Made by National Part Number: 614018 even more interesting is that both model years list a bearing made by Brute Power yet with different part numbers CC1705C vs 614018 sometimes I just don't understand AutoZone math, ha ha I'm going on about this because success is 80 percent pirsperation and the other 30 percent inspiration, jk |

I made mine out of a transfer case knob (new knob but with my old indicator "disc" inserted). The threads were different (fine vs coarse) but I ran a tap threw it to correct that. K |

Re: What can be said about the 4-speed New Process NV833 overdrive manual transmissio
Well after some research and studying all the HURST Shifter Stick charts I came to the realization (which you probably knew already) that GM was too cheap to buy the sticks from HURST and decided to use their own, aka generic ones, at least in the 81-83 era - correct me if I'm wrong
It appears that HURST tags all their sticks with their logo, its a pride thing I guess, kinda cool, well and my stick aint got not HURST written on it, does yours? (run out to the garage and check, we'll hold.... lol) here are some of the HURST stick charts I consulted SHIFTER STICKS Steel Sticks Page 40 SHIFTER STICKS Steel Sticks Page 41 same goes for the shift knob, it is also a GM creation, as I do not see any that look like our stock one (with that Overdrive feature) on HURST's website |

alright than, onward and upward, I really don't care if I have a name brand shifter stick or not, I'm just enjoying the research part, and sharing what I find, but remember always double check what you read on The Line, ha ha
ok now on to the Identification of our Transmission, HURST style, in other words which transmission is ours? Well again the HURST website / Transmission chart does not list our GM transmission, they show three different New Process 4 speeds but ours does not appear to be one of them. NEW PROCESS 421 for the Mopar A-Body NEW PROCESS 422 for the Mopar B-Body NEW PROCESS 423 for the Mopar B-Bory or E-Body Well what does that tell us or confirm? Again correct me if I am way off, but it confirms that we can't get our shift linkage rods from HURST since they never made them for GM, you see GM used / made their own linkage for this beast, fun fun fun making them that much harder to find, and they did not put part numbers on the sticks I don't think and rambling on and on, I heard of our trans refered to by the number 440 yet I have yet to see that anywhere in official GM documentation, they do refer to it as option MY6 but thats about it |
Re: What can be said about the 4-speed New Process NV833 overdrive manual transmissio
As noted before, there are several shifters for GM. My 2wd and 4wd shifters are different, the 4wd appears to be heavier built and positioned slightly to the left when compared to the 2wd one, not sure if it's 4wd or a model year thing as it is earlier (mech bell while the 2wd is hydro belll).
Yes, the shifter itself can be rebuilt with Hurst parts or reconditioned by Hurst. No, the linkage can't be bought (remeber my earlier comment about getting the shifter? Turns out you need the shifter and all its rods as a package). The rods do not appear to directly interchange between the variations of shifters (look at the offsets). No, the early Chrysler parts do not work as is. I have heard that the Dodge truck shifter wil work although not in the exact same location, and again needs the rods to match the shifter. I have also heard that the early Chrysler shifter, possibly still available from Hurst, can be modded to work. I see you are looking for one of the rods. Can you detail exactly which of the shfters you have? Althouugh i doubt you can get a rod by itself, some clever person might be able to send you the pattern for the rod and/or make one for you. |

Here's some more detail on the T case shift knob conversion. I notice both my knob and the replacement knob are textured; the NOS knob above appears "shiny" which is not how I recall them being. I would probably be ok with a more nostalgic round shift ball, but that might be just me. K Quote:

for any of you interested in doing the Keith transfer case knob swap, there is a transfer case knob for sell on eBay at this time, it is not mine, and the price is very reasonable still

Re: What can be said about the 4-speed New Process NV833 overdrive manual transmissio
I have got two of these NV833 or A833's . Both of mine came as factory equipment in 1982 GMC half tons with 6.2 Diesel. Both trannys have an aluminum bell housing with cast iron tranny bodies and non hydraulic clutch.
They shift well, and I like the tall overdrive on the highway. At 65 MPH on a summer day the 6.2 / A833 in a two wheel drive pickup I have made 33 MPG (Imperial gallon) Im in Canada. If your looking for one of these transmissions, try checking bone yards for early 6.2's |

man I gotta tell you I am really enjoying studying these spieces of transmissions, the Four-Gearsis-Overdrivis
went to home depot and got three 3/8th - 16 x 1 inch long grade 8 Cap Screws and spring washers to bolt up the shifter mechanism to the tail shaft of this beauty I swear there is a dude on eBay selling these three bolts and washers for like $20 bucks and calling it some Hurst Mounting Kit - LOL, I paid about $3 bucks for mine |

so lets take a look at the linkage shall we
first thing you may notice is that I am missing the middle rod, the longest rod, that I believe is the 3rd/4th gear rod the green tape shows you where it would start at and where it would end at, minus a few strategic twists and turns |

then I decided to exercise the transmission a little bit, and noticed I had difficulty shifting between 1st and 2nd gear, not even using the shifter just holding the loose rod with my hand and trying to push it forward and pull it aft
I switched the rod to the 3rd and 4th gear and that one shifted fine by hand so there was only one thing to do, that is peak inside the belly of the beast first I noticed that two of the 10 bolts in the rosary have different washers and are a bit longer, what I didn't notice that there is a third bolt which itself isn't longer than the other 8 but does have a thicker neck, this proved to be a PIA in terms of getting it back in, in other words I forgot which hole it came out of |

i was pleased with what I saw, nice oily bits and no broken teeth or metal shavings, and pleased with what I didn't see, that being any rusty parts
