so i got a good deal on a topshift tcase for my dual setup but.....

it has some inspection plate on the side of it and im wondering it this will fit on behind my dual adapter without being a problem as far as clearance goes ?

Do you have a picture of it? Kinda sounds like a PTO (power take off) t-case?

KToy · « **Reply #2 on:** Mar 02, 2007, 12:54:53 PM »

it is a power take off if i recall the guy said you can hook a pto winch up to it.

They are very rare in the US. That guy didn't know what he had.

so 50 is good deal..

now WILL this thing work as a rear tcase with a mc07 marlin dual case adapter ?

$50 is a great deal for any RF1A toy gear driven t-case, let alone one as rare as that one. Marlin has the only two PTO cases in the US that I have been able to find reference to so far. And there is a guy in N.Z. that has one, and he said that they are pretty rare over there too.
It should work fine behind a crawl box, marlin is, (or was) running one in his truck.

I think I read here some where that the PTO was for a water pump for pick up based firetrucks.

how much is this thing worth

because im thinking of selling it and making money and buying a regular topshift tcase.

inmyownsummerami · « **Reply #13 on:** Mar 03, 2007, 07:25:55 PM »

Marlin would probably buy it, or trade for some mechandice. The only difference I have been able to find between the PTO case and a reg. case is the PTO opening, so why don't you just use what you have?

KToy · « **Reply #14 on:** Mar 03, 2007, 08:40:57 PM »

cuz i like to buy and sell and make money... and i have a guy that has a topshift tcase for 50 bucks here localy.

here are the tcases i have.

i have access to one broken topshift.
i have 1 forward shift that i stole parts out of the topshift to convert for my middle case.
then this top shift with the pto. i think im going to use it for the cool factor to say I HAVE a rare tcase ya know.

i think ill buy this topshift for 50 bucks so i dont have to convert my forward shift. but.... im going to convert it anyways just incase i blow a tcase i have a spare 2.28 to get me off the trail ya know.

what yall think of those ideas ?

That looks like an L-43 input, and there's no bearing retainer clip

. Here's the info from the T-Case Bible about the PTO cases.
Type 5 PTO EFI 4Cyl
* Unique PTO (Power Take-Off) access port on housing #1 (reduction housing)
* 4-bolt rectangular PTO mount flange
* External device powered by the Low Speed Idler Gear
* External device believed to be a Water Pump on International Toyota Fire Trucks
* Tall Case
* Top or Forward Shift
* Quiet Run Gears
* 10mm Flange Bolts
* With Bearing Retainer Clip
* 21 Spline Input
* 27 Spline Outputs
Looks like you have a rely early version of the PTO case.

Duffil · « **Reply #19 on:** Mar 04, 2007, 10:48:56 PM »

get ahold of dave or marlin about it. they might swap you cases.

KToy · « **Reply #20 on:** Mar 04, 2007, 11:03:29 PM »

swap me.... what they gonna swap me a reat topshift with 4.7 in it or something ?

it would not make any sens for that to be uaed for a water pump, the truck would have to by moving to use the pump

Not if the Trans was in gear and the T-case was in Neutral.
