The splines do not match up on the first two...this latest one (with the 1.5" shaft) won't clear the seal that they installed when they...
Thanks AV8 I spoke with Basal's when I first got this transmission, not realizing how specialized it was...but they were very friendly, so I'll...
That’s too bad. I’ve ordered a couple things from them and I personally haven’t had any complaints…yet. Mustangs unlimited used to be local and...
I wouldn’t even know how to tell anyone what I need. Three different pros have already told me that the first one I tried with the 1.113” spline...
Does anyone know of a GOOD and HELPFUL transmission shop in Connecticut? I'm going crazy finding a slip yoke for an oddball overdrive...
Yoke #3 does not fit. This one came from CJ Pony parts and in the comments section a customer had said that it fit his 25 spline T10...which is...
Well that might be an option...that's WAY cheaper than I would have thought...I have an exploded view diagram somewhere (I think) so maybe I'll...
That's the idea, old boy!
Paging Anthony Myrick... Does YOUR trans have a seal installed at the tailshaft? If so, can you measure the Inside Diameter of that seal...is it...
Gene- that is something to keep in my back pocket, if I can't find the slip yoke. The Brit and Volvo units had a bolted flange and, while...
Boy...Denny's Driveshft's "Contact Us" is crap. It tells you that sending them an email is your best bet...doesn't give you an email address and...
Wheeltramp...if you can find one let me know. Thank you for looking. Nothing back from the place I bought the first yoke from...their website...
Here's a before and after for reference.
Whoops...Thanks Squirrel. The British cars used a bolted flange off the back of the tranny. This was the Laycock guru's first time seeing one...
I did not contact them...The one I called was CCI and the guy wasn't very helpful. He was telling me that I needed one that was out of production...
I have a goofy transmission I plan to install this winter and I'm having a fit figuring out a slip yoke. It came out of a '76 Gremlin and the...
Figured I'd check back in...Funny story. I made an assumption about which model carb that I had...and bought size 28 nozzles to replace the 25s...
Thanks for all the responses. I'll probably take the carb off when I do this. I know how things usually work out for me!
Alright, alright...laziness be damned. I can totally see it going wrong if I don't just take it off. Thanks.
Haven't ever removed one of these before... Looking for any tips on NOT dropping anything down in, while navigating around the choke plate and...
Re-torqued the intake bolts today and the ones in the "middle" (Y-Block) required a little more to get up to 25 lb/ft. Also ordered the next...
I can't imagine it's a bad valve. Everything moves just fine when I re-checked the lash a few months ago, and it runs great. I think it's more...
What causes a backfire through the carb when you try to "blip" or "rev match" while downshifting? Cruising along, shift from third to second, tap...
Funny...I have another thread now about how the rear spring (9 leaf spring pack) doesn't really allow any movement because it's so stiff. I guess...
Oh- there is almost zero travel- if I try to bounce on the open trunk OR bench press up from the ground there is no compression… It’s already...
Well, I wasn't able to fit my half-assed shims under the rear of the tranny anyway, so it will stay as it is. Thanks!
Damn...more to think about than I thought about! Here are a couple more photos...about 1.75" from the top of the axle tube to the bump stop on...
That was my next question! Inhabe removed a bunch of parallel leaf spring packs but never a transverse one. I don’t have a spring spreader tool...
None that I have ever noticed but the car is loud at speed, so I probably wouldn’t hear much. Maybe I will stick these shims in and be more...
Here's a shot of the setup in my '30 Model A...There are 9 springs and it rides HARSH on expansion joints and bumps. I'd LIKE to change that. The...
