Thanks guys, really appreciate the info and that linkage looks a lot better than the one they sell in the kit.

Very Nice, and looks sturdy!  Is anyone else missing the recent change to inability to hit "like button" instead of adding a "reply"? (or doing "both")

Depending on the application, one may end up fabricating the linkage anyway.  This is what I ended making for my 3B.

You can easily fabricate the shift linkage I did cause I thought the stock set up was pretty rough and sloppy. So yo can drop that of the estimate.  Its compact so would fit in a carry on.

I seem to recall that the Warn brochure states 23 pounds.
 Not sure if that includes the shift mechanism.

Art C., who owns the Bantam trailer site,

http://bantamt3c.com/

also has some really good info on his jeep site too:

http://48cj2a.com/ 


He's got a whole section devoted to pto's:

http://48cj2a.com/ptos.htm


and there on that page I found some overdrive stuff as well.

Specifically, this ad that gives the weight of a Warn unit of 25 lbs.

If Bosco doesn't want to mess with the extra weight, he should bring you along on one of the trips (for on job training - of course) and then you call haul it back in your bag!

Hi guys,

I'm looking to purchase an overdrive unit for my 5.88 geared 3B, I'd like to calm the revs down a little as we drive in a mountainous region.

Can anyone tell me how much they weigh? Just a rough figure.

I'm going to try and convince my boss who frequently flies to the States to bring it back with him and I need the info as part of my pitch.

I'd imagine it's quite heavy...

Thanks in advance,
