Hi group..
Steve PM'ed me with this question..


Alex,
Thanks for the great info. I was wondering if you could answer a transmission question for me. With the transmission I have can I
1) Remove that drive line brake
2) Fabricate and bolt up a collar
3) Buy and bolt on that output shaft gear and be good

Or… do I have to get a carrier specific case and a different output shaft?
Thanks,
Stephen

I think with a tail shaft housing change and a fabbed up drive shaft he should be away..he shouldn't need the brake assembly housing..of am I wrong..?
Don't have my parts manuals anymore so can't remember if the brake assembly can be removed from the tail shaft and the housing assembly remain as is or not..and then go from there..


But then again I don't know exactly which transmission he has..

FORUM members...???
Input please..
