The tranny is a no synchro double shifting bucket of fun 4 speed.  I went through it and pulled everything out of the case, cleaned it up and put it back together.  Very little wear.

Engine and truck only had 53k original miles on it when I purchased it from the original owners son.

Heres a vid of me driving it around the block last fall or so.  You can tell I was getting used to the tranny.
