what will it take? M40/M41 140-160 70

I know someone out there has done this before so i thought Id do a little research.

Id like to put an overdrive trans. into my 70/145and Im wondering if Ill need to do any cutting on my nice flat driveline tunnel.

I think that along with the tranny Ill need a crossmember but am not sure on that.

Id like to keep the long forward mounted gear shift as is.

Will I need to get the driveshaft/differential flange as well.

I drive trucks for a living so I thought that I could just put a rear axle split shift switch on the shifter lever.

Any tips or warnings would be appreciated

Thanks in advance RUSS
