In the ones I've seen in an early (50's) Ford, yes it goes on the transmission. Do you know what they are off of?

I plan on just hooking a switch to mine and bypassing the governor and just doin' in and out of OD with a switch. Hope that will work.

That will work but if at all possible, the solenoid needs to be wired in a series circuit with the governor.  Without the governor hooked into the circuit, the toggle switch will need to be turned off each time you come to a stop so you are not taking off in low overdrive.  And under normal circumstances, the transmission will also not go into reverse with the overdrive solenoid engaged but if you do manage to get it into reverse with the solenoid activated, you’ll damage the overdrive gearing when actually trying to move the car in reverse.

I just took one apart. Not much in there. I had one of the stand bolts stripped out of the base plate and I secured it back in with JB Weld. After I was done I pulled my daily driver up and hit it with the jumper cables and it clicked so I'm assuming it's gonna work. I plan on just hooking a switch to mine and bypassing the governor and just doin' in and out of OD with a switch. Hope that will work. I did that on a '57 back in the day and it worked. Check those replies to that T-89 site on "technical". A guy put a bunch of web addresses in there regarding schematics etc.

Tero/Paul,



I emailed the info twice, reversing the addressee & CC, but mail was returned undelivered both times. Let me know if either received it, or if you want it resent (alternate address?).




I didn't get it. Try pts1231@aol.com or pts1231@verizon.net
