Here is a link to the specifications guide. Keep in mind the physical size is just one small hurdle in a long list of problems you'll most likely run into.

I drive both every day and most of the time I can shift an eaton faster than my nv5600 with a dual disk clutch. Clutch feels lighter on the freightliners too

you use the clutch to shift a 10 or 13 sp. non-syncroed trans.? the shifts on these transmissions can be fast, but you have to shift at least twice as much as a 5 speed. i guess with a light pick up you could skip gears, and i have to admit it would be kinda cool. would make it feel like you were driving a "real" truck. i think with the size of these transmissions it would be a very tight squeeze.

No clutch needed- that is the appeal of the eaton fuller trannies: clutchless shifting. I can do clutchless shifts with my nv5600 too, but its not as smooth.
