i thought i had a w-56 trans in my truck and a top shifting transfer case in my truck. but i noticed today that my transfer case isn't top shifting and my tyranny looks like a g-52 , 54.
has that happened to anyone else? my truck is a longbed efi made in dec of 84 so i was thinking thats why i got the older setup.
my question is , do you guys think i have the g52 or the g54.?

that is a good question. You might check on the Marlin website.

Checked the Marlin website and it doesn't look like a G Series tranny came EFI. It says that a W56 came with a 1985 EFI. Might somebody of swapped out trannies?

if it was supposed to be a W and you got a G, you got screwed. A G is not all that bad however, I have been using one for a couple of years with no problems.
