You can install the OD trans. as is, trust the previous owner, and hope for the best. If funds are short and you aren't planning a coast to coast run, it might work.

It is 3/4"X16 TPI, in other words a 3/4" SAE bolt. I was curious enough to take my plug out and mea; /html/6pack/2000-06/msg00169.html (6,990 bytes)

If the od is stuck, the trans will feel "locked". Some times a whack to the brake; /html/6pack/2000-06/msg00305.html (6,353 bytes)
