  1. I was able to work on it during the holiday and removed the drive shaft. So onto pulling engine, it looks like I can pull the engine with the tranny attached....is that a good idea or a bad idea?
  2. I have the front clip remove radiator and all was at the step of removing the drive shaft to pull. I will give this a shot..
  3. Thank you for this insight re the nut securing the drum to the output shaft....the books I have didnt show how it was secured. Thanks for all the advice, I cant find anyone near buy that knows anything about these trucks. I cant find a machine shop to machine the motor let alone build it,
  4. I can access the bolt but not enough to cut it. I can move the drive shaft about 2 inches forward and backwards but wont come out any further almost as if there is a vacuum. I think there is a small hole in the yoke that maybe plugged and creating a vacuum I will try to clear that if not will just try to pull the tranny, Thanks for the help.
  5. thank you. Will do so. How would I remove the ujoint bracket that has the speedometer cable and u joint that is mounted on the back of the transmission? I found 3 bolts expected 4 holding it on, but didnt seem like it wanted to come off and I dont want to horse it off.
  6. I have taken the drive shaft off of the diff and the shaft wont slip out of the yoke. I was wondering if I can pull the tranny with the drive shaft on the tranny not sure there is enough room.
  7. Need some advice or help. I am trying to disconnect the drive shaft to disconnect the transmission to pull the engine in my 1950 b2b truck with fluid drive. One of the spline bolts in the u joint bracket that is on the back of the transmission is stripped and I can not get it free. I have broken a bolt extractor inside the bolt and not sure how how to move forward. I dont know if I can take that entire assembly off the back of the transmission. you can see the bolt with the nut that is stuck. Any help appreciated.
  8. I have been restoring the grey lady but ring failed and now need to pull the motor. I have the front clip off but dont know if I need to remove steering or if I should remove the tranny or pull with it. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
  9. very good suggestion I will check it again. Thanks
  10. I added a gallon. I cant find any leaks. I degreased the area and have fresh paper under the vehicle. Nothing to this point.
  11. It is unsynchronized and love the double clutch. I have left it in second and driving it around.
  12. Thanks for all the info. I filled the fluid drive and drives well...or did until new fuel pump stopped pumping. I have a new fuel tank and such on the way so sould be close to driveable. I will keep fluid drive for now. Thanks so much
  13. Thank you, I wasnt sure how to check the level, the motors and chiltons shop manuals I have from 1951 didnt provide instructions how to check. I will check tomorrow. is there a straight forward way to remove the fluid drive from the drive train? Would I need a different clutch and transmission (have 3 speed currently)? Thanks so much for the advice and instruction.
  14. Not yet. The truck ran well then sat for 14 years. I gave it to my daughter and her husband because they wanted to restore......and now I have it back.
  15. I have a 1950 B2 fluid truck, it is running I put it into gear (1st and Reverse) as I let the clutch out the truck starts to move then with clutch completely engaged it wont move. Looking for advice on where to look. Any guidance.
