Overdrive

I have a 72 Blazer and drive often it often. I would like to install an overdrive trasmission. I heard of this being done on pickups I was wondering if any one can point me in the right direction.

Thanks

2wd or 4wd? www.700r4.com is a site you might be intrested in. Any picture of your ride?

Advanced adapters has the new shaft you need to mate with the 205transfer if 4x4.The 700r4 1s 1.5-2 inch longer than a 350th.Gear vendors would be cool,a little expensive,and it will mount to back of transfer case if 4x4.

It is a 4x4, I am not going overboard with tires (no mudders or anything) I just like having 4wd. Will the 700R4 bolt into place with the exception of the transfer case? What other things do I need to consider for the price, I am still a student. Though I should have some money once the Federal Govenment lets me come home from Kuwait. Thanks
