Is like 400 miles from Mo to there .. would probably be cheaper to ship it somehow .. The gas to come there would probably be more than shippin' ..

Got any idea what it weighs or how much it would be to ship it to FL? It's heavy I know that. Would probably have to be by freight like CFI or somebody like that .. ??

I will weigh the trans. I will also check into freight costs. I will advise. Might be late next week. I am headed for SEMA in Las Vegas.

Gents you could check Greyhound for shipping the trany.  I don't know what they think about weight but they are pretty reasonable on big volume stuff like fenders and doors and such.  You need to drop it off and pick it up at a terminal.

I've had good luck with FedEx. If you can put the tranny on a pallett and strap it down they will take it. I've sent some boat engine parts to CA that way and the price was reasonable. Check them out. Chuck in NH

Thanks y'all. I'm thinking right now that I may just come and get it when I go to MO for Christmas. May cost more but I haven't been to Omaha since I was a kid. I was born across the river at Council Bluffs IA so I may just come up and look around there. Would be a good little side trip. Does anyone know if the T-85 is a direct bolt in ie: cross member mounts, linkage etc?

Did we ever decide if the T-85 is a direct bolt in or not? Did we find out what one weighed?

That depends on what the T-85 comes out of. There are different versions with different spline sizes and tailshaft lengths. I'm sure that a pass car version will fit, but the truck types will require modificatons.

The one in question here came out of a Ford station wagon he said.
