But some thing don't ad up, like tire size listed on the door and a few other things. So the 5 speed makes noise running out of gear and the old owner said it would lock up at times shifting into 3rd. I was wondering how to determine witch trany is in is truck. from what I found on line it would be a 465 or the 525 if it is a direct connection rampage.

I did find some numbers on the under side of trans where the half shafts attach, it is (4295481) and then (cavity 3) also (05111 * 84) Do these mean anything?

My guess is you are going to have a 465. I you need one and can't find locally, I have both a 465 and 525 sittin out in the shop.

I wouldn't have ever looked there, thanks. It is a A525 I'll see if I can find one around here but don't be surprised if I send you a message. I removed the cover on the end of the trans and found a broken sync ring. thanks george

So they don't know if it is a 525 or 465. Some do record the final drive ratio in the 260 to 280 range. mine has a 387 gear ratio so I not sure wath the final would be. George.
