  Which Ford transmissions from '32 to '48 used the 15 tooth drive gear and the 29-24-18-14 cluster?

Thanks

  I have one, from a truck.

  They were available in cars and trucks after the war. Cars with 3.54 rear ends were a good fit as well as pickups with a 3.79 and wanting a low first gear.

  I buy a lot of '40 to '48 Ford 3sd side shift transmissions to use their gears to upgrade the earlier top load transmissions. in many cases the side load versions have a 29 tooth cluster gear and 15 tooth input gear, which are the gear sets I prefer to use for for this conversion, along with 3.54 ring and pinion gears for the banjo rears.
