I bought the wrong transmission for my 66.

Right! Believe my OD has 5.125 308 bearing and the McCandless has the 4.354 307 bearing. Brewers has the 5.125 retainer for the 307, but they haven't sent me a bill or way to pay yet. But that's a good thing considering what I just learned today. Right now I need to figure out the most cost effective way to solve my problem.
So just to get it clear in my mind......your "problem" is that the truck transmission you have needs some work. Is that the main thing, or is it that you cannot put up with the 3.09 1st gear?
