To answer Chris's post--An M47 is a true 5 speed transmission. 4th gear is referred to as "OD" because it is an overdrive gear (instead of the 1 to 1 of 4th gear it is a .8 ratio). If a proper size tree is not available as has been suggested -- I'd drive down an empty street in 3rd or 4th at a low speed (10-15mph) and floor the throttle. If the clutch is weak (or the cable set too tight) that should induce slippage. - Dave
