Any Nashville H55 Five Speeds?

[Stickgunner]

I have an 1986 60 series with a H55. I'm currently using 35" tires, though its been regeared to keep everything running right.

Another Nashville 62 owner here (Brentwood). Just wanted to check in. Still running my A440 with a rebuilt 3FE I recently put in so for now no help for this thread, would like to go H55 in the future.

Very cool! I’m leaning towards the H55. I’ll have a really great H42 4-speed from a late model FJ60 (that I’ve had in my FJ62) for sale soon if you or anyone else might be interested in a good 4 speed. Going from the A440 to the H42 in my FJ62 was night and day difference - totally livened it up! Actually dig my 4 speed manual so much, but since I’m doing the motor rebuild I think I’m gonna lean into the five speed at the same time.

Just pulled the money trigger on an H55 for my '86 60 that will be running on 31's. I'm hoping that feeling at highway speeds, "God I wish I had a 5th gear" will finally go away.

I think with parts, out the door will cost an even $5K.
