fat finger while scrolling…

Found one

power steering box went to large spline in 73 I think the manuals stayed small. check with Firm Feel they offer both large and small spline pitman arms. https://firmfeel.com/collections/1973-1976-a-body?page=2 there may have been large spline manuals for C-body’s, truck and vans. I don’t have...

with the rear shocks disconnected jack up the car by the frame letting the rear axle hang, measure from top shock mt to lower shock mt. And add 1/2” or so, look for shocks with that extended length . BTW beautiful car

I guess I’ve been a little careless in my scrolling and hit the disagree button by mistake and not noticed. Sorry for any confusion-no disagreement here

Sorry must have hit the disagree button while scrolling and not noticed. No disagreement here.

I used to run into that problem in my 68 that had the federal pump. I currently have a 67 that I converted to ps using a Saginaw pump and have not had that problem so I’m going to say it’s a pump problem, not enough flow.

Here’s a Saginaw pump in a 67 barracuda, I did have it tweak the high pressure line a bit.

got it fixed last nite. I guess I should have specified I’m on an iPad using safari, and the ads are info links pop ups.

Why are ads showing up again at the bottom of the page.. I have adguard but they started showing up again yesterday

a day late and a dollar short, I just finished install my rebuilt 833 and yea that thing gets heavier every time. Great idea, hopefully I won’t have to do this again but I will definitely keep this idea in mind, thanks for sharing it!

Took mine into Liberty for a rebuild, turnaround was just over 3 weeks, Brewers had a 1 year turnaround, that along with Liberty being local to me helped with my decision

Had Liberty go through my trans due to a lock up in 1st gear, they recommend Staylube 24239. Haven’t put the trans back in yet so I can’t report on shift quality yet.

Here’s a better pic, they do have two bushings but not bronze.

I’m pretty sure they’re speedmasters. I picked them up about 5 or 6 years ago, haven’t used them yet

Not the greatest pic but here the rockers I have, bushing material looks to be steel of some sort. Shaft has oil holes but not the grooves.

Looks like a fun day

Vise grips will work also!

Turns out the first gear snap ring was missing allowing it to float a bit and eventually it stayed engaged as I went to second causing the bind then it seized on the mainshaft. So for parts, new mainshaft, first and second gears and synchros. Also steel shift forks, oh yea and the rear bearing...

There must be something else going on in there, I want to say thanks for all the help so far but this thing is still messed up. It now drives in neutral along with first and third, second it binds up and will stall the motor if I let the clutch all the way out. Time to pull the trans and have...

Well I think I have it fixed, l was able to get the 1/2 slider in neutral position, I installed the side cover and verified shifting thru each gear, my concern is that the output shaft will not turn when in neutral unless the clutch is depressed. Shouldn’t I be able to turn it?

Side cover off, detent ball still in place. Hard to see much inside with the exhaust pipe right there. Took a couple of pics.

They bolt to the k frame, one hole is there, you have to drill another. I got them off of Amazon. Energy suspension # 5.135g

Linkage disconnected from shifter, still won’t come out of first, I’m pretty sure it’s internal, just not sure what. The real pisser is I had the engine & trans out to paint the engine compartment, regasket the engine and paint it but didn’t bother to go thru the trans cuz it was working ok.

These brackets lower the bar and move it back some. I did have to elongate the holes in the brackets to move it forward about 1/4” and yes I plan on flipping the end link bolt’s

It’s the earlier detent style and I did notice that the shifter seemed to be traveling a bit further on the shifts, the shifter was contacting the opening on the reverse, first and third shift. Something was wearing/ moving. Planning on pulling the side cover this evening

Oh I reefed on it! it felt welded to first. have some chores to due and will get back at it later.

Driving home yesterday as I went to pass a slow moving truck I went for 2nd gear and nothing, coasted to the side of the road. Put it in 2nd and car would not budge, no 3rd or 4th, only 1st. Drove home (about 5 miles) in 1st ugh. When I got home I had reverse and first, parked it to cool off...

I’ve had this one to the track a few times but that was because the race car was down for a refresh
