Bedford SB 41-seat coach fitted with a 300 cu in. Bedford diesel engine. We want to improve the performance of the vehicle and plan to fit either a five-speed overdrive gearbox or a two-speed rear axle. What are the likely results of either of these installations?
AThe fitting of a five-speed overdrive
gearbox would give an improved performance on motorways and motorway type roads and the two-speed axle would give greater flexibility on hilly terrain which you will undoubtedly encounter, being based in Sheffield.
