Hey Mark, Thanks, that's pretty interesting too! But mine has no provisions for any solenoids or hoses. The hose barb on the top is for venting. Mine has a separate aluminum piece that bolts through to the pinion support of the 9". I haven't found any info. anywhere on this. Maybe someone has an old catalog from Jones Mechanical? All the gears are fixed just like a regular quickchange. The ratio is determined by the front gears added to the 9" gear ratio. I bet this ole thing makes a hell of a racket going down the road with these straight cut gears! This thing belongs in a hot rod with solid lifter, geared timing chain, glasspacks, and leaf springed chassis! Boy would that be a sight and sounds! Thanks, Matt.
