All trucks, RV’s, and vans, have clearance for the overdrive but some cars and streetrods can have very tight tunnel areas. Typically the overdrive fits these rides justperfectly but if they are tight it is usually just at the two upper rear case studs.These studs can be shortened easily and/or the tunnel can just get a 1/2 inch widedimple in that area. In tight applications you will attach the overdrive to the transmissionwith the Trans back up into position to determine exactly the point of contact. Themost that is ever required is this dimple (usually Then only if the subframe bracehappens to be in that area). As you can see above the overdrive is very compact (roughlythe dimensions of a standard coffee can) and looks very factory once installed. Kitscome with detailed installation instruction set.

Electronics:

Gear Vendors electronics offer several features unique to the industry. In thiselectronic age the importance of communication with the on board factory processorof any late model vehicle is a necessity for good performance. Our systems allowmany specific features (depending on the vehicle), such as; automatic engagement,and disengagement (AUTODRIVE tm), auto lockout in 4wd mode, manual override, indicatinglights to show auto mode and engagement, double overdrive canceling (for vehicleswhere double overdrive would not be useful), automatic converter control during shiftsfor vehicles with lockup converters, accumulative shift counter to show you exactlyhow many times you used the overdrive over its life, troubleshooting indicating display,and digital ratio buffering to communicate with the vehicle computer.
