Re: F150 tranny with overdrive
I was wondering if anyone has found a source for floor mats without the hales pre-punched. I have e-mailed Snyders to see if they could special order one for me.

Re: F150 tranny with overdrive
Correction,,, actually the 91A7563 has the weights, the 8N or 9N 7563 do not. The 91A7563 is listed as a heavy duty replacement for these tractors.
