If by "panel van" you mean the Travelall of the 1960's, I do not believe they had a 4 on the tree. I had many of those series vehicles in the 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton sizes and they had the possibilities of a 3 speed column shift, or a 4 speed floor shift with granny low, and a 5 speed with granny low and a 17% overdrive in 5th. The bell housing was drilled to accept any of these trannys, and the swap was quite easy. All of the trannys were cast iron case and quite H.D. The transfer case was separate from the tranny with a short driveshaft from main tranny to T.C. The trannys were built by Borg Warner, and the transfer case was New Process 205 (gear on gear). They did have an automatic tranny option, and it was a Borg Warner. In 1972 they changed over to the Chrysler 727 auto tranny, it was nearly bullet proof.

The road repair stations (dozers and Cat graders) were about 400 miles apart so any section of road might be graded maybe once every month or two in the short summer.

After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
