Tranny swap

I have a 7790 with a hydro and would like to put a manual trans in it. What trans should I be looking for? Thanks

Jan, find an old 710/7010/910/7110 with a six-speed set up. Swap the back ends. You will lose your hydraulic lift, so swap the manual lift also. The six speed will work great for pulling, and gives lots of gears to work with.

This diesel had a straight 3-speed which we changed driven pulleys for the conditions.

Hey thanks for the info. Hope to do well, I use to pull with a B10 about 20 years ago and picked up this 7790 and thought it would do well but was not sold on the hydro. Well anyway I'll keep you up to date on my progress. Jman Thanks again!
