Ok guys this is a little OT but I'm going to be dragging home a 1948 Diamond T farm truck soon. My plans are a simple mid 80's (85?) 1/2 ton independent front end with power disk brakes and power steering too along with same rear end with a what else ? Chevy 327 and a four speed. BUT I want something different to go along with the pickup four speed or auto. I want to use a brown Lipe (spelling) 3 speed behind the four speed. I might even find a 5.9 non electronic Cummins for the power. I am wanting to be able to shift the brownie without the clutch going down the highway. Am I crazy ? I WANT DIFFERENT. Opinions to you old TRUCKERS that HAVE run or drove trucks with the said trans ?? Thanks guys. There's a car show and auction rod run that's every August and I'd like to join these great people and have some fun with my Diamond T !!! Pictures soon. To keep it tractor related it WILL be pulled from its resting spot with a JD 4840 or a Farmall 560.
