O type Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Does anyone know if I can fit a 5 speed gearbox in a Bedford o type? I presume it has the same bell housing as a tk? I would like a bit more speed. Iv changed the crown wheel and pinion but only does 35mph with hi engine revs any advice would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwrightoy Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 I fitted an overdrive from. Andy Usher. It helped on the OY which I think had a 7.4 :1 differential ratio. Message me if you want anymore info. Regards Graeme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O type Posted August 13, 2021 Author Share Posted August 13, 2021 Yes I’m in contact with Andy regular it’s just a bit expensive for that conversation if a 5 speed from a 214 tk would fit it might be the way to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwrightoy Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Not sure but I think it's the differential that you would need to change. OB bus diff would be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
