Re: Finally caught a break NP440 / MY 6
Cortcomp,
My experience on finding this tranny was different. I could find the cast iron and several 4wd versions, even a few aluminum ones with the Chrysler gm pattern. The one I bought in the picture above, was the only one on the entire car-parts website with this pattern. There were a couple aluminum versions but the had the combo bolt pattern as well.
Music Man found some leads on Craigslist and several were wrong listings. There was another in Montana with the correct bolt pattern, but the owner only wanted a local sale and pickup. He did sell me the shifter rods.
The tranny I got was from an 82 Chevy 1/2 ton. It seemed that GM shifted to the combo bolt pattern about 84 and later.
Hope that helps narrow your search. Good luck. Hon's in Georgia or South Carolina has a complete aluminum unit with bell housing and combo bolt pattern. They are on the car-parts website. Just make sure you look for one with side case a shifter, 2wd.
