T-19 decoding

[Austin86250]

I’m trying to figure out exactly what t-19 I have to buy a rebuild kit

I bought 2 parts truck many years ago the guy pulled this kit his shed and said it was from one of them and the early 6.9 truck was missing the trans would be my best guess but not confident enough

Everyone says to just look at the tag on the top of the trans but I can’t find a decoder anywhere

Tag says E4T3-MA

I have a feeling it’s the 5.11 verity just by the way it feels and I believe E4 means 1984 manufacture date which backs that suspension up

But I’d like to go off more than suspension thanks

If you have 3.55s and the 4.02 first, then you will notice. Starting out in second will not be ideal in any scenario with such a setup.

The 5.13 gears and 5:1 first in my service truck is notably the other way around, I start out in second most of the time, and third if aimed downhill. If the truck was lighter (it’s very very heavy) then it would probably start out well in third all the time.

Yea I’ve driven many of zf5’s in idis with the 4.14? I think it is first that’s why I make the conclusion for 5.11

Can't you jam it into 1st with a big screwdriver, turn the input, and count the turns until the output makes one revolution?
