Here is a link to a detailed tech article on the Volvo overdrive. It was made by Laycock, a British company, and was also used on Triumphs and other British cars. This article discusses the J-type overdrive, which is supposedly more reliable. It details teardown and rebuild.

We would be driving along and he would stand up at the wheel and say 'Get your a&& over here, you're driving'. What could I do? I slid over to the driver's side and took the wheel! I was afraid, but he made me do it. He made me strong".
