It was so funny the other night I told my wife I might be getting a trans from a guy in Star. I was like where in the hell is Star anyways? Then not five minutes later this ad comes on TV it's some guy at a golfcourse in Star ?Idaho:lol:

Re: Daverods project 66

Re: Daverods project 66
 

:uhmk:He's from Star.:smoke: I can see how it would be confusing.;)

Re: Daverods project 66

Re: Daverods project 66
 

My manual 3 speed that I'm still waiting to see how much $ to get it fixed. He said he had one that he might sell to me. I looked at a 64 GMC to day good body no engine w/ 4 speed tran. Told him I could do 600 he wanted 1000. Have'nt heard back? No rust. For an Idaho truck that's just not right. I have a 283 sitting in my garage.

Re: Daverods project 66
 

Stupid question. I was looking at dropped spindles. The modular ones from cpp 70-71 $300 say "Allows earlier years to update to larger bearings". Any ideas what they are talking about and if it matters?

Re: Daverods project 66
 

Wahoo!!!
My old tranny is sitting on the garage floor tonight. Spent all darn day learning about tilt columns. I could not get it back together where it was not loose. Finally when I found an exploded view I could see , I had a piece in backwards. Works good now. Steering wheel is on and every thing. Truck is lifted up and on jackstands now and it is Transmission time.
Dave, look out -- I'm catching up --- I would post a picture but I haven't figured out how yet!!

Re: Daverods project 66
 

Do it this way [img] enter the properties of the image then [/img] Right click on the picture properties is at the bottom, select all , then copy the address and paste between the two img things. Take lots of pictures so I'll know what to do. Good work.

Re: Daverods project 66
 

that e-brake teeter/totter arrangement on the back brace is different! Do both old frame braces have to come out? I have a new mount for the TH350.
