Henry's 70 Dart Swinger

so this happened last weekend while driving. reverse servo arm guide pin flew right out and dumped fluid all over the highway. it was special.

as you can see, some dipshit put on a broken tail housing and stamped over the ends of the guide pin hole to hold the pin in.

genius.

I need a new tail housing with that retaining tab not broken off and I need a new reverse servo guide pin. I can't find the pin anywhere on the net. its not a part that seems to be replaced often or wanted much.

I think i'm going to rebuild this trans myself (I rebuilt the twin ultramatic in my Packard myself...easy) or I can get a new one from TCI for 1300.

I really want to go with a 3k stall, rebuild trans, new u joints and rebalanced drive shaft, and 3.91 gears. but that was about 3k

oh and oil leak has been fixed. new oil pan gasket is in, leak stopped.
