'85 would use the Mazda 5 speed POS (I saw many blow up for just getting torqued on too hard in 3rd gear) A '79/80 with solid front axle (Highboy) could have the 3 speed with O/D (T85? Can't recall what mine was that I had in my non-stock '66 Fairlane) with a remote Dana 20 tcase (I saw quite a few ex-gov't rigs this way. Low pinion 44 front and D60 rear)From: Wrambler

IIRc correctly my cousin asked me about the tranny options for a new ford 1/2 ton he was buying.
his choice was between a non O/D and higher axle ratio or the O/D trans and higher gearset.
I know he was talking only 4x4 truck and this owuld have been somewhere between 1979 and 1985ish.
So, I would suspect the O/D trans did make it into some ford trucks.
Be darned if I know how many though!
Time to get looking!
Someday, I'm going to find me one of those O/D toploaders and build me a Rambler with a column shifted fourspeed! with O/D!
or, maybe not...
