    I probably need to get a reman Weller quoted me out 3200 for the one with over drive and 3800 for FR15210B which is what I have. What is the difference, I know overdrive spins lower at r., But truck is already weak in 10th. So I probably need the one I have. It comes with a 2 year warranty.


    Thoughts anyone???


    Other places to get remans. I'm in St Louis.

    My decision on whether to go with the overdrive or direct transmission would be 100% based on the rear axle ratio. If your crusing RPM in top gear is already low, you're just kneecapping yourself by switching from a direct to an overdrive.
