  1. If anyone is looking for parts let me know. Free, you pay postage/shipping. I took a 50 tail housing off and swapped on my 49. Pretty straight forward and shifts very quiet and smooth. Let me know if you are needing 49 or 50 and what your looking for. Thank you
  2. James, Any interest in selling a 49 type if you have a spare? Thank you
  3. Will a 50 m6 work in place of a 49? Pictures look the same but the e-brake drum looks different unless they swap. Looking for a spare.
  4. Tom, I did the same kit on my 49 a few weeks ago and lost my tranny shift. I can't remember what was wrong but use the schematic for the tranny and you will figure it out. If I remember I had to remove the extra wires that went to the tranny and one was power that needed turned on with the key and not routed through the electronic points. I also did away with the kill switch wire from the tranny. Sorry so late but just ran across this. Good luck!
  5. After the drive shaft remove the bolts (maybe 6-8) holding the back half to the front. Separate just enough to rotate the back half ccw and on the front half lower left looking toward the front it looks like a recessed cup (mine was full of junk) and when I used a screwdriver to work out there was a strainer attached. Cleaned up like new. From the drain plug I flushed through the screen port all scum from bottom of case too. Sorry no pics though.
  6. I removed the drive shaft from the transmission and separated the case around 2", rotated it and found the filter which was plugged almost solid. I cleaned the screen, flushed the bottom of the case as best I could and struggled to put the case back together but finnaly managed. Filled with fluid, took a drive and it performed perfect. Thanks for all your help!
  7. I will, been too busy last few days. Hope to get into it by the week-end. Thank you
  8. I did notice fluid squirting from the plug adjacent from the solenoid on top of the tranny. I looked over the ball valve under the solenoid and parts looked good and in proper order. The lower valve also looked good although the spool that is the last to remove would not come out. I never thought about the coil plunger pushing the ball from not retracting enough. I will check it after work tomorrow. Thanks again!
  9. Is the pressure relief I the bottom rear plug under the tranny? There was a plug I removed and looked over but didn't notice anything that would allow it to bypass. Is the screen only accessed from the inside?
  10. I did try heavier oil with no luck, same results. The way the piston pushes back it looks like a valve is dumping but I've checked the only 2 I could acess.
  11. Donald, no I typically only use the high range but I thought I would try it in low and low drops out as well. When I take off after setting a day or so the car will shift up one - two times then drop out of 4th and not go into 3rd until the car speed falls below at least 30 mph. After it drops into 3rd it will rarely shift back into 4th. I hope this explains it better. I removed the solenoid wiring with the same result. I removed the switch from the top of the tranny, jacked up the car to observe the piston through the switch port. You can see the piston move forward but usually comes right back and it's like there is a valve opening and closing.
  12. I'm in Ashtabula County near Rock Creek. I've gone through my manual and read the master tech Chrysler manuals. The problem solving really only takes you to the electrical or hydraulic direction but doesn't cover much on the hydraulic side. I will do more searches here to see what I find. My problem doesn't go away with all electric removed from the tranny though. Thank you
  13. My 49 Windsor drops out of gear shortly after warming up at highway speeds. I disconnected the solenoid and drove with same results. I removed the interrupter switch and see The piston push forward but it doesn't stay when up on blocks running. The fluid is full and correct. The piston looks like the pressure keeps dumping because it releases rather quickly. The car was performing great up until this occurred. Any suggestions rather than remove? Thank you
