Re: [AMC-list] Thinking 'bout transmissions

[Matt Haas <mhaas@xxxxxxx>]

A T-14 was offered starting in 1968. You'll need to modify the drive 
shaft (it either needs to be lengthened or shortened 2 inches, I don't 
recall which) but it will bolt right in place. At some point in the 
early 70's, they changed the splines on the output shaft so you may need 
to use a different front yoke if you end up with one of the last few 
years they were made.
