Re: Frankentruck

I was able to drive the truck today, but overdrive won't engage. Not sure yet if it is the lockout lever not all the way back, or the kickdown switch wired wrong, or a bad solenoid, or a combination of those.

It does drive good in lockout mode though. Seems that there is a different gear set in this trans compared to the old 3 speed. Definitely seems to get up and go a little quicker now
