Overdrive Unit

Really old stuff that got saved. Here are the old Nissan Patrol Club America messages from the 'General' category. Warning, it's dusty in here!

Overdrive Unit

Post by npca-rickg »

Can anybody identify this overdrive unit?  I recently purchased an engine, transmission, transfer case from a 67' Patrol and this came with it.  It looks to be of US manufacture, but I can't find a brand name anywhere.  The only markings are as follows:   Main Casting - R10B-IL   H6  and a tag B-13   The electric solenoid for the parking brake is stamped RBM Inc.  4AR10B-62   It appears to be functional, but I won't know for sure until I get it back into the rig and running.  The plate that attaches to the T-case looks custom.  It utilizes four of the five mounting holes for the rear bearing cap/seal.    Rick GAttachment: TCase Adapter.jpg

I web may have answered my own question today.  The unit is manufactured by Borg Warner.  Some other pictures of a similar unit and details can be found at the following URL  http://www.classictruckshop.com/clubs/e ... ebuild.htm    Rick G

Rick G,   So you just bought an engine that has an overdrive with it?  Please post details or e-mail me direct.  Only everybody that has a stock patrol wants to know how to put an overdrive on it.  The main problem is the adapter, I think.   VBT3

VBT3,   Check the link to the classic truck shop site.  There is some good detail about the Borg Warner unit.  My original message had some pictures attached, one of the t-case adapter still connected.  The adapter plate is fairly simple.  On the t-case side, the plate is flat I think (I'll look when I get home tonight).  It has four holes around the center hole that use existing threads in the t-case.  Those holes are countersunk w/hex head bolts attaching the plate to the t-case   On the OD side, (see picture) there is a hole machined to the size of the ring on the front of the BW unit.  There are also four threaded holes to attach the OD unit to the adapter. Mine is home made it looks like, one of the holes for the OD unit is slightly off center, but workable.  Let me know if you need any other details.   Rick G
