2stacksuperdog Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I think he means just going from the 6 speed to a 6 speed overdrive. From what i understand their the same just one is overdrive.

I've never seen or heard of another one--not even on this forum, so I was beginning to wonder if I'd dreamt it. Thanks for restoring my sanity. :-) Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/36460-making-x107-direct-to-x1070-overdrive-transmisson/#findComment-254130 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brocky Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 mandt428Are you asking if the gears can be turned over to make it an OD??? I know it was done in the 9 & 10 speed Roadrangers but I have never heard of it on a Mack..
