behind 258 inline 6 in early 80's CJ7 and CJ5's

In this era was also a T4 and T5 ( light duty and not the same spec as a T5 from a commowhore)

most common was a T400 auto for the quadratrac's and a T999 with the D300 after 83

why do you want a T176 while a good box not what I would call great but that really depends on what you want to use it for

Thanks for the reply. I am looking at using a T176 bell housing for a np435 conversion. From what I understand they have the same box mounting?

Another question - are they a passenger side slave?
(I've got output shaft clearance issues)

Thanks
