Does this tool also do the rivets that fasten the welting to the windshield-to-hood-rests (Early CJ5 and M38A1)?

Willys Jeep Parts Tech:
Yes, it will do your hood welting.

I have a 46 CJ2A with 3 speed on the tree. How do you determine what spline and tooth I need to order?

Willys Tech:
You should have the 26 tooth count on that vehicle.

I have an 71 CJ5 with the original 225 v6, T14 trans bolted to a big hole Dana 18 transfer case. Will this overdrive work or does have to be the T90?

Willys Tech:
Yes, as long as it is the D18 transfer case you will be all set.

I have a 48 4WD Truck with a 60/40 bench seat. Will there be a problem with the lever location on this model?

Willys Tech:
No, we have never had a complaint. It will go forward of it.

i have a 1955 4wd pickup with flathead 226 is this the right kit

Willys Tech:
Yes, this is the proper overdrive for you.

Hi, can I put this on my 1948 CJ-2a with a rear PTO still functioning? Thanks in advance

Willys Tech:
No, you can only have one or the other. They bolt up to the same access cover on the back of the transfercase.

what transfer cases will this unit fit? Are there install diagrams?

Willys Tech:
The D18 transfer case used on all Willys.

I saw a question already about if the shift lever would interfer with a 60/40 bench seat but the answer was never completed. I'd like to know if will fit with the bench seat or if the shift lever can be modified to work with Bench seat or if just will not work with a bench seat. I really like the bench seat and prefer not to have to go to bucket seats.

Willys Tech:
I do believe that odd ball 60/40 seat would interfere.

Do you offer an overdrive option for a T90 3 speed with a Dana 300 transfer case?

Willys Tech:
I do believe we can accommodate. Please call us toll free.

Will this kit work on a 1966 CJ6 with the V6

Willys Tech:
Yes it is for the V6 engine as well.

Hi. can you tell me how heavy the unit is?, i have to carry it on a flight. thank you.

Willys Tech:
They are approx 25 pounds.

Will this overdrive kit fit my 1959 FC150 ?

Willys Tech:
I believe with the FC-150 because it is cab over there may be some linkage issues.

Where does the new gear shift come out through the floor in relation to the main shift lever

Willys Tech:
It comes out between seats to the rear of the main shifters.

Do you have to relocat the drive shaft.?

Willys Tech:
No it goes to the left of the driveshaft on the access cover of the transfercase.

I have the daunltess v6 cj5 1971. I dont think it has the t-90 in it but im not sure? How could I check and do you have anything or any recommendations that might work with this? Trying to obtain the golder 65mph without sweating it!

Willys Tech:
It will be stamped on the side case of the transmission. I would check it. Either way we have a SATURN for you.

Just so I am clear, this is the tool the fastens the rivets for the welting that goes on top of the grill and that the HOOD rests on?

Willys Tech:
Yes that is correct.

I have a 1956 willys pickup 226 supr hurricane 3spd, would you no what overdrive unit would fit it? I have'nt looked inside to see how many teeth it has and I want an overdrive for it,can you help me?

Willys Tech:
This is the proper overdrive for it. Just remove the access cover on the rear drivers side of your transfercase and count the number of teeth.

Have a 59 cj5 with the optional 60/40 bench seat. Will this interfere with the shifter placement or is there another location to place it?

Willys Tech:
I believe you will clear but will have to check.

Can a 29 tooth gear overdrive be installed when my transfercase currently has a 26 tooth gear in it ?

Willys Tech:
If you have 26 tooth you will need to use a overdrive set up for 26 tooth.

I have a 1952 M38 with a buick V6. It has a T98 4 speed and a Dana 18 Transfer Case. Would this overdrive unit work on my Jeep?

Willys Tech:
Yes we have a kit that will work.

Do you sell the shifter and the linkage separately? If so, will they fit an original Warn unit?

Willys Tech:
These kits are specific to the Saturn only.

I already have a power take off for my 53 willys truck how would I go about hooking it up as a overdrive

Willys Tech:
You can have one or the other but not both. They both go onto the back of the transfercase access cover.

Is the overdrive and parts made in USA?

Willys Tech:
Yes that is correct.

Hello, I have a '62 CJ-5 with an original factory T-98a four speed. Will it attach to this?

Willys Tech:
We can custom make them to. Please call us toll free.

Does this unit allow you to split all of the gears on my cj 2a? Also what is the round part in the picture of this unit? I take it the other parts are the Shifter, overdrive unit, and metal cover to put the shifter thru. Is that correct? Thanks

Willys Tech:
It is basically like adding an extra top gear. It just bolts up to the access cover on the back of your transfercase. It will come with full easy to follow instructions and is very stright forward on installation.

When you put this overdrive unit on the tranny, does this mean that you will have two main gearshifts

Willys Tech:
It just adds an extra lever really to engauge it.

how does this attatch inside the transfer case ? remove the old gear and does it just slide in place or screw on or clips ???

Willys Tech:
It just bolts to the back of it where the access cover is. You just remove the gear pretty much and slide it in.

I have a 1951 cj3a Ido not have a pto on my transfer case just the the cover will it on it?

Willys Tech:
Yes this will just bolt right up to the back of your access cover on your transfercase.

I have a 68 cj 5 and I need to put a new exhaust. I have a 231 v6 and the exhaust will be a single. It should follow the original, but I plan on putting in the overdrive in January. Anything to worry about?

Willys Tech:
I dont think you should have any trouble with that. I cant image any interference issues.

I have warn od witha front pto off it will this one be able to replace it

Willys Tech:
This will take the place of the PTO.

so could you shift this in between gears to or just after your last gear?

Willys Tech:
This is a 4th gear more or less.

this item can be used both in the transmission T90 and T96

Willys Tech:
This is for Dana 18 transfercases only with T90 transmission.

Can an electrical solenoid on the Saturn Overdrive unit instead of the lever? If so which solenoid. Thanks

Willys Tech:
These are mechanical only on this.

i own a 1959 2wheel drive wagon with 4 cyl engine. will this unit fit my vehicle? thank you

Willys Tech:
They are different for your 2x4 Station Wagon with the T96 transmission. Theis is for vehicles with transfercases only.

i know this is not a question but. i had a ramsey pto that bolted to the bottom of the dana 18, so with that you could have both the pto and the overdrive on a dana 18.

Willys Tech:
You can have one or the other bolted to the back access cover.

I am wondering if you know anyone out there has done the numbers for gas milage before and after the overdrive unit? Plus if I could put one of these in my 49 cj-2a with a Buick 225 V6? thanks as always

Willys Tech:
This really doesnt have anything to do with gas milegae. It more adds an extra top gear giving you 25% more top end. Yes these will work fine with any D18 transfercase.

I have a 46 cj-2a with a three speed on the column would this work on mine.

Willys Tech:
Yes, they bolt to the back of the transfercase off the access panel.

if I have a PTO can a overdrive still be instaled and if so how

Willys Tech:
You can have one or the other but not both.

Will this work on a Cj5A 3 speed without an overdrive?

Willys Tech:
Yes this is made for it. They bolt right in.

Will this overdrive effect the low range gearing by 25% if overdrive is selected from low range/4WD?

Willys Tech:
This is for top end only. You wont have to worry about that.

I have a 56 Willys CJ5. The emergency/parking brake is between the drive shaft and the transfer case. Will that interfere with the overdrive unit?

Willys Tech:
No this will not interfer. It bolts to the access cover next to it on the back side of the transfercase. It is made specifically for this application.

I have a 1954 Cj3b Will the shifter for the overdrive come thru the floor between the seats.

Willys Tech:
Yes that is correct.

is this unit a workable option on my '48 Jeepster. it has the overdrive unit, but it does not operate properly. Will this fit? And if so, what of the old components would need removed?

Willys Tech:
These are not for a 48 jeepster. They only fit the vehicles listed.

Description says everything is included but I don't see the shift lever boot. Do I need to order the PTOBOOT if I purchase this Saturn Overdrive?

Willys Tech:
Yes I would order a PTOBOOT as well.

I have an M38 with the removable floor plate covering the transmission area. Will the boot plate and boot adapt to go over this floor plate?

Willys Tech:
Yes im sure it could be.

Does it come with a special shifter boot, or will the factory PTO drive shifter boot work with this?

Willys Tech:
The factory PTO boot should work with this fine.

I have a 53 CJ3A. Where does the shifter come through the floor? Does it come through the factory PTO drive hole?

Willys Tech:
Yes that is correct.

Can the stock driveshaft be used or does it have to be modified or replaced?

Willys Tech:
Your stock driveshaft is fine. It bolts to the back of the transfercase next to the driveshaft on the inspection cover. So it does not interfer or change anything on the stock driveshaft.

my stock 1946 cj2a tops out around 40 mph, what would be my new top speed with this over drive?

Willys Tech:
You get a 25% increase in top end.

The description of the Saturn overdrive talks about different splines. Do you need to know which spline configuration you have and specify for ordering.

Willys Tech:
It is either 26 or 29. We can tell by your vehicle. Or you can count it be removing the cover plate on the back of your transfercase.
