Gary Lewis Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 The handy dandy page (Interior/Boots) says it is for an 80 - 83 w/the 4-speed overdrive tranny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Lewis Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 My '82 isn't round. Isn't the one linked here round?? Yes, it is round. And the package says it is an E0TZ 7277-H, which is the right one for an 80-83 4-speed w/overdrive. Don't know more than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know more than that. Well I know mine looks like others and they are more square, or rectangular. Definitely not round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ford F834 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Well I know mine looks like others and they are more square, or rectangular. Definitely not round. This is just an impression, but the boot and trim ring in Pete's truck looks an awful lot like a ZF-5 boot to me, and the hole at the top where the shifter cane comes out does not look like it hugs the cane the way it should. I could be completely wrong but that's just how it looks to me. That said, I have looked at a lot of junkyard trucks and I don't ever recall seeing any round boots. Maybe I'm just not remembering right but I thought even the SROD/SMOD/TOD had square or rectangular ones... I will have to pay more attention. 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No telling if the boot got changed at some point, so maybe its not right. Below is a pic of a '79 I own ( that I have let a friend use, until they no longer need it ). I put the 3spdOD in it. I don't remember where I go this boot? whether the boot was on the shifter when I bought the trans or what?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's as opposed to a 4-speed w/o overdrive, like the NP435 or T-19. Just explaining how to read the catalog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just explaining how to read the catalog. Yeah I know that. I just refer to them that way, because that is really what they are. Many people think they are a true 4 spd, with 4th being 1:1. I use that terminology so everyone knows what I'm talking about. And as a side note . . when used in the Mustangs, they said 4 on the shifter knob. But in the trucks, 3 and OD was the last position :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ford's terminology is somewhat odd, and 3-speed + OD is more obvious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
