i am going to rebuild my 3speed transmission and have located an overhaul kit, I have been looking for a manual to aid me in doing the rebuild and all i can find is info on a 54 chevy 3speed and nothing on the 62, can anyone with any info that would help me, i would be greatful.
thanks
jeff
maybe the 54 chevy manual will give me the basics i would need for the rebuild, no one in my area is willing to work on the old chevy 3speed, it seems all they want to work on is automatics... go figure | | | | | Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 1,756 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 1,756 | I buried mine in the back yard... | | | | | Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 106 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 106 | Nice truck! The shop manuals sold by the Truck Shop, Jim Carter, etc. have detailed information and photos on transmission rebuilding. If your driveline is the same as a pick up truck, I think your 3 speed trans would be the same as is shown in the 1955 and later shop manuals.
I have found it is best to look for transmission repair shops that have been in business for a long time when trying to find one to work on my 3 speeds. Bigger cities usually have several old transmission repair shops.
Stovebolts are good for the heart
