Early (3-Synchro) cars had a D type overdrive. Post 67 cars with
4-synchro boxes had LH types. Early LH (through 76, I think) used a
different speedo for O.D. cars, due to a differnce in speedo gearing.
77 and on used the same speedo. Early LH's and late LH's are
mechanically interchangeable, but a speedometer error will result. 77
model year cars and on used the same driveshaft for O.D. and non-O.D.
cars. Earlier cars had a different shafts.
Hope this helps.
