For Sale:$450
Clark 280VO [5.98/3.50/1.86/1.00/0.80/5.04R] 5 speed trans. Used '68-85 and later in over-1.25 ton applications. It is out of a '79 Ford 4WD, F-600 two axle dump. I don't know what engine it had. One of Ford's big industrial gas 6's, I believe. Here are some specs though:
retainer hole dia: 5"
stickout: 6-3/4"
clutch sleeve dia.: 1-3/4"
spline dia.: 1-3/8"
spline count: 10
pilot dia.: 1"
case length 15"
has NP 205 shifter, shifter knob and bracket/linkage still attached.
rr output is round 4 bolt for divorced NP205 short drive shaft
This is a true heavy duty. Much more H.D. than an NV4500 or any Getrag.
Going thru the gears- everything smooth; bearings, synchros.
It seems to be in very good shape. This is a great buy in my view.
I found it just too heavy duty to use in my CJ8. This is the rare one with 20% OD. Most of the Clarks had a 1:1, 5th gear. I posted this 2 years ago, and had lots of bites but no buyer. This is a good deal, and it should last longer than you will.

would you know the shipping weight of the tranny strapped to a pallet???

If you were not in So cal I'd go pick it up personally. So I'll need to figure cost for frieght.

Eric,
You are one of the "lookers" from 2 years ago! My kids live in San Jose and Castro Valley, so I get up that way quite a bit from La Crescenta. I have some PM's with anxious buyers, so we'll see what happens.
This 280VO is every bit as strong as my NV5600. It also has a lower low gear. The difference is the 280VO weighs about 225 lbs, and the NV5600 (yeah, it's an all-synchro 6 speed though) weighs a whopping 360 lbs.
regards, as always, jefe

Hey Jefe, I have a 1970 factory 4wd crew and I’m looking for this exact transmission or.. Clark 264VO, NP 540O, NP 541O and NP 542O. Do you know where I could find one? Looking to do a ford 300 with one of these behind it in my crew. Thanks, Jaymes Fremont Ca
