I suck at searching im sure its in here somewhere.

what trucks came with top shift tcase?

I have an 85 22r
and a 87 22r both 5-speed trucks would either one?

thanks!!
 
It's not so much which trucks, but which transmission. Most of the G-series trannies are forward shift, I believe all the R-series are too. Most of the W-series are top shift.

Good selection of pics here:

Rebuilt Complete | Marlin Crawler, Inc.

I believe your carbed trucks both have G-series transmissions.
 
Very simple answer:
(1) All 1979-83
(2) All 1984-88 with 22RE EFI engine
The 1984-88 22R carbureted engines all have a front loader, and everything 1989-newer is front loader.:beer:
 
the reason I ask is, a guy near me is trying to sell some 5" all pro springs for $250, and im trying to buy a house so I have no money but want these bad!

and he wants a top shft case for trade. is one worth more than $250? because my 87(parts truck) is EFI so it SHOULD have one. my 85(trail truck) doesnt I suppose being carb.

I had always planned on swapping cases eventually.

should I trade and find another case later on?
 
The case is for the front or rear case, of a dual case set-up...

so... what's more important? IF, you even have it...

they're both R's... not RE's...

The top shifter, and to echo Jim, is EFI only...

Hey, I think another way to tell, is if there is a different shifter hole for the TC... It's THAT far back, it doesn't not share, or is close to the tranny shifter...

and there is not a separate holes for the shifters.

also if you are talking about shifters in the trans and transfer case, there are two holes in both set ups.
only difference is the trans for the r engines will have two shifters in it, for the re engines it has one and one in the transfer.
 
which was the issue I ran into with the marlin box............I had to drill two holes cause my forward shift went into the tranny hence the tranny had two shifters in it.:beer:
