Rich Little and Mickey Gustavson overdrive

Post by Alex Dragone » Tue May 16, 2023 8:20 am

I am trying to find out if Rich Little and Mickey Gustavson in Bakersfield, CA are still making Volvo overdrive conversions? If so does anyone have their contact info? I’d like to talk about putting one of these units in my TT truck. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Have you considered a Layne Warford?

The Laylock type D overdrive for Volvo's are getting difficult to find and expensive to repair/rebuild. I should know, I have early Volvo's with them. As stated, you can not beat the KC Warford for what you are going to use it for.
