SOLD H42 top cover

[ksemerdjian]

Vehicle Model

1. 40 Series
2. 60 Series

I bought a H42 split case combo recently and didn't realize the earlier ones used a cover where the shifter is further forward. From my understanding the cover is interchangeable so before I relist the trans does anyone have a later H42 top cover like the one pictured? I will be doing a SBC swap.

That is most likely a 60 series top cover. The 60 and 70 series the shifter is further back. These are made of aluminum. The H41 and H42 40 series top covers are cast iron. With a split case (8/80+) the cover has to be from a later 8/80+ 40 series. The reverse light switch is on the top of the cover. Pre 8/80 H41/H42 reverse light switch was on the back with the one piece transfer case. Could probably use a 8/80+ on a early four speed. To run a earlier cover on the later would need to remove and plug the hole for the reverse light switch.

I was told the trans and T-case where removed from a 81 60 series. This is my actual unit. Not concerned about back up light switch, just want the shifter further back.
