Light duty 4 speed OD stick in a 80's 2wd - what is it?

[AJMBLAZER]

Kinda interested in a truck on another site. Low mileage early 80's 2wd plain jane half ton. Former government vehicle but in good shape for it's age.

6.2L diesel hooked to what he says is a 4 speed stick with over drive (ie 3 speeds + over drive). Anyone know what this trans would be?

A-833...

Sideloader also commonly found in Mopar stuff. Available with OD or without. Not terrible stout, and no granny first gear. In a 2WD with a 6.2 I think it'd be a good tranny to have...prolly better than the NV3500 5 speeds.

We'll see I guess. Trying to get in contact with the guy but he so far seems to be one of those, "I'll post it here and then vanish for a month" sorts.
