I have no idea wha tranny is in the Lincoln the motor's coming out of. All I know is it's an electronic automatic four speed with OD lockout. I plan on checking the engine and tranny numbers when the car gets here, probably Thursday. Best way to find out for sure what I have, right?

I can speak volumns on the A4LD; I had the truck three days when the tranny went. After hunting for one and not getting lucky (everybody I called said they wished they had three or four of them), the Lincoln was given to me by a friend and the idea struck: I've always wanted to build a tough, dependable off-road vehicle, just never had the opportunity or the time. Well, the opportunity has arrived and it's time to make time.

In the next couple of days, I'll be getting another digital camera and plan on documenting this "adventure", if you're interested.
