Re: M-46: Why on earth design a 4+OD? 200 86

If you put one day of solid work in to it and changed the wiring, relay and seals, it would be good for another 20 years. I think Volvo had such a good transmission in the M45 (4-speed), that they decided not to mess with it and just throw the OD on the back. Look what happened when they tried to make a 5-speed (M47). It is very weak and troublesome.
