humm.. so use a.d. parts? did they make very many with 3 on the tree in 47/53?
can i use tf linkage with a 55/57 cover?
if not, i have to get all the linkage , plus find a side cover off a 3 speed from the a.d. years?
would those be a open or closed driveline? ( i think bigger bolts had a open right?
this is why i was shying away from the three on the tree. I had a 53 coronet with 3 on the tree w/ overdrive loved it on the column but i figured it might be a treasure hunt.
Can i go with the 2 bent rods welded to the arms? like a circle track shifter? mabey run it like that till i get all the cloumn parts together?
at Cletus: yes sir I have a 56 rear im gonna swap the 3rd, weld pivot points ,new clutch while the tranns out, install the 3 speed, measure for drive shaft and try to figure out what to do about that. ive rounded up a sm318 , 2 319s one w/solenoid, 56 rear. just gotta get some more funds for clutch and drive shaft and then Ill try to knock it out in a few days. how long do u think ill be down? is there anything i might wanna farm out? 3rd member swap, is it pretty straight forward or tricky?
thanks guys
