papaws 49 chevy 'Bolter P Joined: Nov 2007 Posts: 25 Westfield, IN	I have a 1949 4 speed that sometimes drops out of 3rd gear at low/medium speeds. I've seen several posts about this on 3 speeds, but none on 4 spd. the transmission has never been rebuilt, and the truck had been running since new. Steve
