Rupaul was a tranny that was mainly used in the early to mid 90's (heavily) but I have heard has made some sort of a comeback recently with a new show of some sort. Probably more miles than you'd want. Also noisy and obnoxious,probably not the best choice of tranny.

I don't think I'm interested in the shift knob either...

Ok ok...so I think what I've found is a w56 forward shift TRANSMISSION and tcase. I have a g52 forward in my 84. I'm hoping this is a direct swap with now body modifications required!?!?


I put this thread here for the tranny year btw...figured you guys new your tranny's better than us with the older trucks.


Edit: turd fergeson...when I joined, I had to choose stumpyjohnson cuz turd fergeson was taken...

Yea I think it's the w56 d or e...

Either way its a top shift and should work without any mods really. Although I do imagine I need a speedo adapter thang, sources?
