[oletrucks] Dodge Transmissions

["Bob KNOTTS" <raknotts@qwest.net>]

I have a 78 IH Scout with a 345 V-8 and the Chrysler 727 auto transmission.
It's a very strong transmission. I understand the new Dodge autos are direct
descendants of the 727, with the O/D added. But I've been told the O/D is the
week point. But most dealers tell you not to tow anything (or at least not
much) in O/D. Bob K in PHX
oletrucks is devoted to Chevy and GM trucks built between 1941 and 1959
