- I think you have some things backwards:) Either of the o/d trannys are bolt in. No frame mods have to be done. The early frames need to be modified to accept the j-type tranny as the frame mount is

- todd is correct in pointing out some inaccuracies in your email. the J-type was built for your late model car, the A-types for the earliers. the 2 overdrive gears that the j-type offers are enough fo

- That being said, you have a couple of options...your '76 frame could be a good donor for the correct tranny mount if you wanted to do the J-Type...otherwise the a-type will bolt right up to the earl

- I've had an A type in my TR6 since 1983 and no one has ever asked me why there is an A type in my J type era car. The ones without overdrive wish they could sneak it out of my car. It was a simple bo
