one of our owner ops said he got a price of 1500 to have it done, no big deal, just have to add the o/d box I can ask him who gave him the quote if you want |

Fredog....please do ask where he got the quote and post it, this is something I would like to condider. I think it would be possible to recover the cost fairly quickly with much of any fuel savings.
Thanks |

| Did one years ago, just added the 13 speed back section on the 9 speed. Have one now I'm gonna do that with, if I can remember what all was involved. |

he said he got the quote from Yancey/Cat in Resaca Ga, I75 exit 320 across from the flying J, sorry it took so long, I didnt see him until Friday,
and no, it's not an ex werner truck, they mostly have super 10s, this is just a regular 9 speed. |
