Big question to settle a ahem discussion

[dartnabout]

Is a truck 727 automatic transmission the same as a car other than the tail shaft? Is the gearing different in a truck?

...........There are minor differences in the trannys.....some trucks and vans also have the long tail shaft same as a car.........kim..........short trannys came in club cab trucks.......

The one in my 84-D100 is same gearing as car; and long shaft.

Isn't there a truck/heavy duty version that has a 4 gear planetary set instead of the usual 3 gear set?

Yes in the 3/4 and 1 ton big block applications. Mostly 440s
