Re: TH350 ol Curt

I have a 350 turbo/250 inl6 setup in my panel. The PO installed it. I noticed the tranny support has been moved back from the original place. There is plenty of room to work so good luck.

Re: TH350 ol Curt

I suppose a transmission jack is necessary, or could I make some kind of cradle to fit on my floor jack?

Re: TH350 ol Curt

FYI. The PO left the three speed column in and used the top bracket of the shifter to shift. I works but I'm in the process of installing a auto shift column. I will take photos to help you along the way. Still waiting for the column to arrive.

That would be great. I look forward to the pics.

Just put a piece of plywood under the pan so the jack won't crush it. The hardest part is trying to get the tranny on the jack under the truck if there is not enough height to roll it under from the outside. It htat makes sence to you.
