Electro12WH 50 #1 Posted June 20, 2011 I met a person in Northern IL. who has a WH 1075 He told me he had intentions of installing a stick shift and selling it as a 1045. When I said "What about the model number?" he said "oh, you can reproduce those". Regardless if he ever does this, when spending your hard earned money, be sure you know what you are buying.

Kelly 1,033 #7 Posted June 21, 2011 Well if you do your homework, a 1045 is nothing like a 1075 diff steering, dash tower would take alot of work to make right, or even close, and the hard to find front tires, I know it can be done, I've seen 2 that looked pretty good, but more than swaping a trans, keep your eyes open if buying one.
