ct50f1, are you sure you have the heavy duty three? Your shifter looks slimmer than the heavy three shifter to me. The heavy threes have a shifter about as big as the four speeds.
No, I'm not sure it's heavy duty. I was told that the lack of a column shifter on a late '50 truck indicated that it was an optional heavy duty transmission. Is there an easy way to tell if light duty or heavy duty?
