would this be for a 3 speed or a 4 speed?
I would assume 3 speed for a 73 but never know if you dropped a 4 speed into it.

Yes 3 speed floor shift. Althought don't they bolt up the same?

They bolt up the same, but the three speed transmission won’t bolt to a 4 speed bellhousing. I have a three speed bellhousing in central Missouri.

Nevermind.

correct they all bolt to the block the same, it's the trans side that is different.
the 3 speed will have a round opening
the 4 speed has an hourglass shaped opening or a figure 8 shape
they are not interchangable

@crockett had one… not sure which type.

I believe that I may still have a 3 speed bell housing. I am in Arizona. I will make sure that I still have it tomorrow if you are still interested.

I have a 3 speed bell housing. I also have the underside clutch dust covers that I had bead blasted and powder coated, but then went with a four speed. $100 for everything plus shipping. I can get you photos.

Here’s what I have, it’s marked four speed but I’m not sure…it was in with all my early FJ45 stuff. .someone else may chime in. If it’s a three speed i can mud deliver to PDX next week.

that is for a 4 speed, the 3 speed has a round opening where the trans bolts, also the 3 speed bellhousing has 2 bolts from the outside, thread into the bellhousing and 2 bolts from the inside that thread into the trans

I have one. I'm in Portland, I'd have to grab it from Vernonia. Its correct for a 3 speed , actually it's off a 1973.

By the way, I'm not looking for money, I'll never end up using it. Better it go back in a cruiser than collect dust.
