Hmmm, I guess that is the 4.1 OD axle?  If so, then the gearing of the
output
shaft- to-speedo cable is different as the ratio of 1184/1152 is not the
same as 3.7/4.1

It is nice that revington has the OD output shafts.  Any idea of the cost? 
I guess
that is all it takes to adapt a non-OD transmission to an overdrive unit?
