[AT] Transmission for tractor hauling truck

[charlie hill]

Charles,  If it has a v6 you should think about going with a 400 R4 like the 
one Cecil mentioned having.  It will handle the torque with no problem and 
will give you an overdrive.   There might be some shifter linkage issues to 
deal with and maybe some differences in drive shaft(s) length.   For that 
matter a TH 350 will handle anything that v6 can throw at it.  I'm surprised 
you have a TH400 to begin with.
