Yesterday I got my second Volvo overdrive unit. This one was pulled from a running car and is completely put together and operational. The plan is to use the first one I purchased as spare parts. These will become harder to find in the future so I wanted to make sure I have spare parts on hand when I need to do a full rebuild. I will get it cleaned up this week and most likely get a gasket set for it. It also appears the end cap on the solenoid is torn so I will inspect that further. I will post some pics once I have it all cleaned up.
The Triumph D-type transmission to overdrive aluminum adapter will be installed in place of the Volvo part. Next I will modify the output shaft so that I can bolt it up to the Triumph driveshaft. Once this is done I will then get the unit bolted up to my new rebuilt D-type transmission.
