Geoff Weeks Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago No, you can't fit that type in an older housing. That is a weir-stat and when "closed" all the coolant passes through the center back to the waterpump. The housings are machined totally different, with differing coolant flow passages.

Mack guy Ata Posted 1 hour ago Author Share Posted 1 hour ago So a funny little update. You guys remember how i wanted a 20 speed on my truck and i might be wrong please correct me if I am. Took out the transmission today it turns out i actually have a 20 speed on it but the Lo-Lo and Lo-Split being stuck shot and the plate saying its a 9 speed. I remember someone actually telling me that i might have one on it with the wrong plate. I will share the photos i took it might be my lack of experience making me think i have a 20 speed. Another update on the truck The guy selling it to me instead that its a b85 but it is not its a b43 dont really change much for me and i was very suspicious of it being a b85 since I couldnt find any b85 with its configuration. Another question and maybe i should start a new post since this one is getting old but. The radiator fan is very oddly shaped distance between blades are different is there a reason for this or do i just have a terribly built fan. I will also uplod photos of it Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76375-question-about-thermodyne-transmissions/page/3/#findComment-591334 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mack guy Ata Posted 58 minutes ago Author Share Posted 58 minutes ago Geoff weeks sorry missed your message. My housing looks like it was ment for a thermostat like that. But still asking around shops that work on the renaults to see if i can find a good match for mine Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76375-question-about-thermodyne-transmissions/page/3/#findComment-591336 Share on other sites More sharing options...
