Default Liberty transmission

I will probably put a Liberty 5-spd in my Super Stocker. I only have experience from the Jerico 4-spd though, is there any one that would like to share their experience from swapping from a Jerico to a Liberty?

Most people here on the board seem to have experience from the Jerico, but I haven't read anything about Liberty and Super Stockers.

Cost not being an issue I think most would run a Liberty. And I think that is the only issue.
Check with Jerico, I'm under the impression they have a new 5-speed comming out this year.

According to the trans/clutch guys I've been in contact with is there no way to compare a Jerico with a Liberty...
Total different function/design. A Liberty alway push you forward a Jerico don't...

What is coming from Jerico are completely new designs. I don't know any specifics, just think it would be worth a call before filling out an order form.

Smile Re: Liberty transmission

Save some dough get a Jerico liberty is a over priced truck transmission.You should be able to get good advice and good service from Jerico.They usually have most parts in stock.Liberty can take as long as 4 months ask the Pro-Stock bike guys.
