Creating an A-833 OD

Yeah the OD A-833's are easy to find. They came in light trucks all the way up until 87 I think. I have 3 of them, on average I think I paid less than $150 each, I picked one up for $80.

Now, the '75 version might still be a cast iron case, and the A body short tailshaft versions are a little harder to find. But the guts of an A-833OD can be swapped into a earlier cast iron case, and the tailshaft is easy enough to work around if you shorten the driveshaft.

Here's more info on the A833's, both OD and non-OD.
