Welcome to ChevyTalk. rrauch has or had one. Hopefully he will see your post. If you search truckstell, there are a lot of posts about them. Seen some names of guys that have passed and some that have not been on here for some time.

I have a Truckstell unit. I won't be using it, as it won't fit the X-frame in my convertible. I have a lot of paper manual stuff about them.
Do you have the push/pull knob that attaches under the dash?
What do you need to know?

Yes I have all cables even dash cable and speedo cable with the modified torque tube. Just didn’t know if there was an actual installation manual or one that maybe talks about adjustments. Literature would be awesome would you be willing to make copies?
One thing I’d like to know if there is instructions on cutting the floor something I red said that the kit maybe came with a patch panel for after you cut the floor I just lowered mine 3” so it will have to be trimmed more probably. I’m a 35yr old mechanic I think I have it mainly figured out . Thanks for any info

I'll check my literature, but I don't remember an installation manual. Are you going to run yours with the sprag clutch? Or try to use it as a sort of in-out OD?

I plan on running it like intended with clutch cable does the fron of the overdrive input go into the ball on the trans if so I have an extra flange coupling with the clamp bolts

Ok thanks that makes more sense the ball part from the trans works a “slip yoke” over the outer part of OD input so I have an extra rear flange clamp I guess
