Do you have an open driveline of a torque tube? I seem to remember 54 being the beginning year for open drivelines. There should be a fair number of the SM-318 open driveline transmissions available for a swap instead of digging into yours and repairing it.

Thanks Jerry!
Yeah mine is still enclosed. I think 55.1 was the first year for open driveline. I have actually found a 3 speed tranny here in Missouri that the guy has had for many years and it came out of his 53 Chevy truck. He says it worked good when he took it out, he swapped engine and drivetrain out for a V8 and auto.
I think I am going to buy it.
