1st post and question about rear gears

[squirrel64]

I'd be interested in seeing that myself

And LCAM I have been all day hunting online for a 5.11 tranny. May have found one, but about three hours away. Everything local closed sunday.

 

[squirrel64]

I got the 5.1:1 tranny. Will be going Wednesday to pick it up. Hope it will help some. I will report back after I get this and new clutch in. Hopefully not to sell it

Thanks for all the help

Good, hopefully the current PTO works out for your new trans. If you don' mind me asking, how much does the seller want for the wide-ratio trans?

 

[squirrel64]

I paid 350 for it. A little high but I'll have it and new clutch here by Thursday and ready to put in Friday weather permitting

Precisely, you have to pull transmission to install a new clutch, that's a given, so swapping one is just a wee bit more work, make sure you set your PTO depth correctly too BTW don't wanna burn up gears n such.

Now swapping a DIFF, is a whole nother ball game as you still have clutch to do so you end up compounding work efforts IMHO

I sure hope that new trans helps out!

I've gotta get pics of my 205 with PTO? WTFover guyes...it's just a PTO, OK will do, BTW it's NOT installed in the truck it's on a bin waiting a 203 gear box to be installed in front of it first!

Yeah, swapping axles would end up costing about the same but cause lots more downtime, and improvement would be fairly marginal IMHO. With the trans swap all is indeed done at once, just so long as the PTO works with the new trans. And since it was mentioned, how does one go about setting up PTO depth? Is it done by stacking gaskets, like the transmission input shaft endplay?

And yeah, I know what a PTO looks like, and I know what a 205 looks like, I even know what a 203-205 doubler looks like. But I've never seen a PTO on a 205, hence the request for pics.

YES and why am I seeming like the one to be a newsbearer all the time? Towcat IIRC was the one whom mentioned that and I looked into it some time ago about ZF's but don't be quoting me on it...cause I could be wrong...

Ok I'm just not seeing that a PTO on a Tcase is much different than one on a transmission but I'll accommodate you tomorrow, I just forgot today, not enough roundtuits in the shop!

The zf's for sure have to be set right. (Just ask me how I know)

You can get shims. But stacking gaskets may work.

I've got to say this has turned out to be a great post. The response to this young mans problem was awe some. So much information in one place. But with all this talk about PTO's I've got to wonder what are you using the PTO for. As an Indiana plow boy our PTO's on the tractor's we're used to power attachments like the hay bailer, cycle bar cutter and so on.
WHY ADD A PTO

 

[91idi]

Turn hydraulic pumps for winches, plows,ect. Or power an air compressor, who knows, even have a tractor style pto out the back. A truck pto is not like the tractor style.

Dump bed.. I could go electric but this thing dumps anything I can put in it

That good enough for ya'll...like I said, on a fruit bin, waiting for a 203 and adapter to make a doubler!

Could be helpful.

Perfectly good enough, yes. I just wanted to see where the PTO falls with respect to the input/output shafts, looks like it may actually clear the exhaust on mine, well barely but clear is clear.
