Re: C50 5 speed?

read up on the military 2.5ton 5speed . there o.d. on 5th but funky shift pattern . also they basicly bolt up to a gm bell housing that had a 5 speed factory . ( i have a whole extra bell setup from a med duty gas 5 speed )

otherwise browny box / aux box and another lever on the floor to shift .

keep in mind the brakes and tires and steering on these old girls was NOT ment for 70+ mph use so watch what mods you do and be prepared for the next round of upgrades .
