Whose overdrive?
I have a Fairey in my 77 FJ-40 and was told explicitly to be gentle with
it by the p/o, the folks who put it in and from the research I did in
1988 when I bought it. If I recall, it's very similar to the Rover O/D
and suffers the same problems, especially wrt low oil capacity.
Is there now a market glut of TLC t-cases? My used replacement in 1989
was $1200.
And what Dave said about the case.
