can0fspam Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Hey guys, Thought I'd put out a feeler here after a mostly unsuccessful search over the past month or two. I'm looking to buy a T19 4 speed. The catch is it's going into a 4wd F150, so I need a 4wd version. I'm looking for the "close ratio" gears - 4.02 first gear - which pretty much limits it to a diesel application (if I'm wrong about this, let me know...) If anyone here has or knows of such an example, I am interested.... Would be perfect if someone with a 4x4 6.9 truck swapped their 4 speed for a 5 speed and wanted to get rid of the old unit. If anyone's curious, this is for a 4x4 shortbed F150 with a 300-6. I had a NP435 stock, I played around with a RTS OD, but I think what this truck really needs is 4 usable ratios and no overdrive. My transfer case has a 2.6 low ratio so I don't need a deep granny gear. My location is Upstate SC... I can travel some but if you're in Oregon, it's not gonna work...

kramttocs Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Hey Jake, Has your search included calling up junkyards and asking? It's hit and miss around here if they keep a record or you get a "come look for yourself" type reply but worth a shot. I think I have one but I am definitely not right next door so best if we can find you something closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Lewis Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Yes, if you want the close ratio gearset then you want the diesel tranny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
