Really don't need to double-post.

 

Specifically, what is this engine in, being that a J15 isn't stock in anything sold in the US except forklifts. Though this doesn't really help you, as the J-series transmission is unique to that engine. The J13 was used 1966-1969 in L520s, L521s, and PL411s (I think) in the US, and that's it. The J13 and J15 lasted a little longer in Mexico, used through around 1979 or so. What they used for a transmission by then I don't know, as by then most market trucks had gone to a newer transmission.

 

Now, if the J15 has a '67+ 4-speed, it's probably internally identical to the 4-speed used in '68-73 in 510s, 70-72 PL521s, and '73 620s, BUT that would require transferring the "guts" to your existing transmission case.

This is actually a triple post!!! I'm erasing the other two and moving this one to Parts Wanted. This is the last one on this or else.

or else what? I thought ratsun member helps each other. thanks anyways. not gonna used this site anymore. BULL SHIT

The point I'm trying to make is one post is usually enough. If you are looking for a part then it should be in the Parts Wanted until you find one. Placing one in Drivetrain won't find one. You can ask your questions in you for sale thread. This keeps all correspondence and information in one thread.

You know with the F4W63 I bet you could swap the tail with it in the car.

[marby618]

the tail end broke where the seal is attached, got the part cost me 400 bucks to repair it and also replace the u joint. now the truck is running well so I rather keep it. Thank all you guys.

The tail from any L16 four speed should easily fit the J four speed as they are the same transmission. Only the front bolt pattern is different.

 

I didn't know it was only the tail. Lots and lots of those L16 four speeds are thrown away every week. Too bad you didn't mention what exactly was wrong.

I really don"t know where the tranny guy got the part, but he told me that his friend has a complete tranny and his is holding it as a whole, but he talk to him and sold just the tail end.
