Re: Rebuild kit for a 1953 3-Speed Transmission
The kit that Dave showed in post #3 while I was searching several sites seems to be your best bet.

Re: Rebuild kit for a 1953 3-Speed Transmission

Re: Rebuild kit for a 1953 3-Speed Transmission
I always use white lithium grease (Lubriplate) to hold needle bearings in place. Sticky enough to hold, but not to thick to affect spacing. Also is compatible with tranny greases and oils.
