Need a manual trans that'll bolt up to an OM617 motor
The motor is sitting in a truck right now and I'm looking for a manual transmission that will be able to handle a 4000lb truck. Any suggestions? I know they made manual transmissions for the T1/T2 truck so that's what i'm looking for but mostly just finding more automatics and 4 speeds for the OM616 4 cyl motor. Will that transmission handle the weight of the truck and the torque of the OM617 at the same time?
