    I've post in various forums inquiring about these transmissions. Response from our brothers down South seems to confirm it does exist. Frustrating to think these are available but not. Somebody import a boat load please. Can you imagine what it would bring on Ebay.

    I have a Ford "Top Loader" 4 speed in my CJ. It has 4 speeds, all syncromesh. Herm says this is the trans he ran in rock crawlers.

    The adapter came from AA.

    I know most of you have never heard of such a thing. The replies I got from guys in South America said it was a T90 and I don't rememder who made it. I never did find out what it would bolt to without adaptors. Doesn't really matter, no one seemed interested in exporting.

    Well if its built in a standard t90 case there not gonna be to beefy as adding the extra syncros and gears would mean the others had to be shrunk down weakening them further.
    If they were made by Clark and swallowed up by Eaton they may still be built as Eaton is the largest manufacture of heavy truck transmissions and transaxles in the world.

    the guys that replied to my post just dropped me when I asked more questions. I did try an contact Clark/Eaton in N. America. I don't remember getting a reply. Some-timers thing. If anybody wants to further the research and import, I'll take TWO! Really.
