GM & CHEVY SM465 4 SPEEDS 1968 & UP:
This transmission can be identified by a case length of 12". The casting numbers on the case should be GM465452, 6273212
or 3901127. The top shift cover casting number should be GM3901131. The P.T.O. opening is available on both sides
of the main case. This transmission has a non-synchro first gear. The gear ratios for this transmission are as follows:
First Gear 6.46
Second Gear 3.58
Third Gear 1.70
Fourth Gear Direct
Reverse 6.09
In order to use this transmission with our kits, you must make sure that you have the proper output shaft from the original
4 speed transmission to couple to the new adapter. Currently, we manufacture the adapters for both 35 spline and 10 spline
output shafts. If your transmission has a 32 spline output shaft, then you will be required to change to one of the other
shafts listed below.
GM Part No. 6259663 - Output shaft with 10 splines
GM Part No. 3932265 - Output shaft with 35 splines
The shaft has a rear bearing that is retained with either a snap ring or special lock nut. Without this snap ring or lock nut
in the proper position, the shaft will walk forward into the input shaft causing severe damage. Make sure that the shaft
is locked by either the lock nut or snap ring to avoid severe damage.
The new spud shaft that we have furnished with your kit must slip over the output shaft without bottoming out or causing
spline interference. The spud shaft is located in the correct position by using the bearing that is counted on the back side
of the new adapter. With the spud shaft in position and the adapter on the new transmission, you must be able to rotate
the shaft freely There are certain applications that may require a slight grinding of the original output shaft to prevent the
original shaft from bottoming out inside the new Advance Adapters coupler. On transmissions having 35 splines, the
threaded portion at the very end of the shaft will need to be removed. This can be done with an abrasive cutoff saw and
must be done for clearance inside the new adapter coupler.
The adapter plate that we have furnished for your new transmission has a special pocket that has been machined into the
transmission side for clearance over the reverse counter shaft. Make sure that the counter shaft in the transmission is
rotated for proper engagement into the new adapter housing.
The right side of the main case will need to be ground off for clearance of the front output yoke on certain installations.
We recommend a trial fit with your transfer case and front output yoke so that any modifications that may be required can
be done before final installation. This is a good time to set up the shifter linkage for the transfer case controls.
Make sure that the adapter fits flush against the back of the transmission and indexes properly over the two bearings.
