Aux transmission identification help

Post by Scott Gilham » Wed Feb 01, 2023 7:39 pm

Got this trans in a T parts pickup. I'm thinking it was with this T stuff because they we're looking to adapt it to a T somehow.
Any guesses out there?

Not sure what it is, but it looks like a transmission for something else. It does not have the right kind of connections for a T and it looks like it bolts to a bell housing, which a T does not have. I could be wrong, I only have personal experience with a Muncie and Warford, but that’s my opinion. Could you adapt it for a T? How good a machinist are you?

I’m leaning towards late 30s Dodge Plymouth truck or similar.

I would suggest asking about it at the AACA’s “What Is It?” forum on their website. With the keyed input shaft and flanged output, I bet somebody will recognize its application.

If you do find out, let us know as well!

It may be a passenger car transmission modified for non-automotive use. I've seen a number of old, line-shaft driven machine tools set up to run off an electric motor thru an old car transmission to give a multi-speed drive.
