    I happened to stumble on an overdrive on craigslist. Its a warn overdrive with the shifter and linkage. Its for a spicer 18 case, 26 tooth count. Is this by any chance what I have/can use? My drivetrain is from a 1959 cj5.

    Chances are you have a 29 tooth gear in your t/case. Pull the cover and count what you have before you plunk down your $$$. If it's a "deal", you can always swap a bowl gear out.

    Wouldn't the other t-case gears have to match?

    Bowel Gear tooth count has to match the Tcase... You can get them swapped from Herm.
