i have a regular 3 speed standard behind a fluid drive coupler as i posted from the beginning
-
my manual and glovebox handbook both say to use 10w motor oil,
-

-
i want grind free shifts lol
-
i just spent $$ to have the transmission rebuilt and wanna use whats best for it,
-
my manual says 10w motor oil but before i got my manual i did some research and read dome people saying gear oil,so idk
-
What type of fluid should i fill my freshly rebuild 1952 three speed standard transmission with?
-
do i start with the front main cap and work my way back or start in the middle or dont it matter
-
anybody know the tork rating and order to tork main caps on a 1952 dodge 230ci? my manual dont tell this
-
that thing did take a pounding lol,the stair trick looked cool
-
there are no 3 bolts or plate with this style gasket, the gasket simply slides into a receiving grove in the back of the block,loosen the mains up and its supposed to slide in
-
Found this on youtube,pretty funny
-
Anybody know where i can find a new parking brake cable and the brake band itself? Its a real pain not having a parking brake and with this car being a fluiddrive theres no way to stop it from rolling away.My cables frozen and the band material is shot
-
ok so some of you guys are saying the surface should be smooth as possible and some are saying a little rough to break in the new disc?
-
my disc is a ten spline,does anybody make a clutch alignment tool for this? all the ones i have found are 24 and up spline
-
its smooth with no heat cracks, 80 grit seems kinda aggressive and wouldn't leave it very smooth?? Idk thats why im asking lol
-
Whats everyone's opinion on resurfacing flywheels for new clutches,my old clutch always grabbed smoothly and never got burnt,i bought a new clutch disc and pressure plate and am not sure if what to do about the flywheel.I dont think getting it resurfaced is going to be easy cause its a fluid drive setup and the flywheel is part of the torque converter/fluid coupler.I dont see how they could do it.Can i just buff it up with Emery cloth or sandpaper or something?
-
someone else had mentioned in chat that the bottom plate on the pickup was removable for cleaning, ill probably just leave it be and douch it with brake clean
-
While i have my oil pan off to do the rear main seal is there any other things i should do while i have it apart to get alittle longer life outta the old girl?She has 110,000 miles,burns no oil,25psi of oil pressure idle hot and 40-45psi cruising at 50mph hot.I cleaned all the sludge outta the pan so far.I thought about taking the pickup off the oil pump but the screen appears to be clean when looking at it.Is the pickup suppose to pivot up and down?
-
ordered a "Best gasket" brand from Roberts Motor Parts West Newbury, MA 800-231-3180 Part #3675 not cheap $45 shipped
-
i was assuming that both the brummer and bolt in style would work since i have the threaded bolt holes.I talked to felpro and they said only the Canadian models used the slip in brummer style which is discontinued by them
-
so which one is a better bet for a leak free repair? the brummer or the bolt in style?
-
