The shifter levers in those pictures fit a Munce with the thru bolt shift shafts for attaching the levers. The little hole on the reverse lever that is bolted to where the shifter is suppose to be bolted is for the factory Muncie back up lights linkage to the switch which would be bolted to the...

You're looking at the outside of a transmission. Without opening it up and pulling the front bearing retainer to see the front seal and input bearing I wouldn't give more than $50.00 for it. I've got 3 or 4 trannies by doing just that. Some folks just don't want their "rebuilt" transmissions...

Every thing yellow rose wrote is correct. I balanced engines for a living in my younger years. Also please note that the A833 for the A bodies also came with the small "904" spline too. It wasn't just the overdrive tranny that had it. Buy everything you need for the 318 like it was a 340...

Judging by the response to what I wrote, I'd say everybody knew exactly what I was talking about. I don't see where Rob said I was mistaken. After 50 years of building standards and listening to customers, I figure Rob meant the syncros. If he didn't, then I apologize. Or do I apologize to...

Very true TB. But then poping out of gear would not be the complaint. LOL. Russ.

Sorry to go against the folks here, but a bad syncro will NOT cause a trans to pop out of gear. It can't. Once the trans is in gear (2nd in your case), there is no load on the brass ring. It's just sitting there floating around. The main causes for a trans to pop out of gear is bad gear (taper...

First off, a '65 MOPAR trans is a ball and trunion and doesn't use a bushing, it uses a rear bearing, seal, and bolt on yoke. Second, I'd check the fluid level and the type of fluid they might have put in it with the "bushing" change. Sounds like it's about empty. Just things I'd check first...

"It will NOT swap. You can't interchange the mainshafts on OD and regular 833 transmissions, and you would have to do that to swap the tail housing. Also, the '69 833 tailhousing you have uses a 307 bearing, while the OD tail housing you have more than likely uses a 308 bearing. So not only...

833 mainshafts and 833 OD mainshafts do not interchange. The OD mainshaft has a different diameter where "3rd gear" normally goes on a standard 4 speed mainshaft. That's just one of the issues. Russ.

Check your 4 speed trans first before you change the yoke. 1966 and later A body 4 speeds came with small and large output shafts according to application. Russ.

The lip goes to the inside (source of oil), so yes, the medal part/backing goes in first, you'll be looking at the rubber part with the wire spring when you're done. Russ.

Lee, sure wouldn't hurt. When I sold it, it was pearl white with a scoop, 340, tunnel with the TR1Y tall top with a pair of 3310's with the 1850 float bowls, Hookers with the vac-u-pan system and 5:13's with the Power Lok clutch type sure grip, V-Gate shifter and non-power front disc brakes, big...

I must have just sold it then. I know I had it when the Landers/Big Bear quake hit, it was locked up in the garage and we were just checking out of the Super 8 in Cortez, CO., on our way to the Whittington Center outside of Raton, NM. when it hit. We were in the Olds then, and the next year we...

Dave, Don't worry about using an aluminum extension housing with a cast iron case. Detroit did that for years with no problem. The early T-10's (and some hi-po Super T-10's) and Fords had millions out there, no problem. The more I think on it, I'm sure it was fluid level that killed them. MOPAR...

Dave, It could be because the ones I worked on were "ran hard and put away wet" sort of deals out of vehicles that were stock but beat to death. I'm sure the aluminum probably had something to do with it too, and people never checking their fluid level. When I built the two I did for my...

I'm trying to search my old, dead, worn out memory cells on the extension housings on the GM 833's. For some reason, and this is just a vague thought, the X housings had a cast in "bulge" (big eyelet?) on the back of the housing on the TOP for the tranny mount??????? My memory cells could be...

GM did use a version of the 833 OD. But the bolt pattern of the GM case to bell housing is really weird and not MOPAR. It also use a GM input shaft (10 spline clutch, GM length and pilot size). Russ.

Dave, If you go the 307 bearing route (nothing wrong with that) use the max 307 bearing front and rear. My part number is M6307N. It has the max number of balls that can fit between the inner and outer races. Some say do NOT use a max bearing because the the cut of the gears, under acceleration...

I built two A body 4 speeds using the aluminum overdrive case, side cover and extension housings for my '73 Duster I had. From cast iron case, side cover and X housing to aluminum, the weight difference was 41 pounds. The overdrive cluster pin is slightly shorter due to the plug in the front of...

Let's keep this simple. If you want the exact ratios, pull the side cover and count the teeth. Let me know how many teeth on 4th gear of the cluster, then 3rd, then 2nd, and finally 1st. Then count the teeth on the input (4th gear), then 3rd, then 2nd. and finally 1st. Let me know the numbers...

That's a B body trans in the photo with a "home made" ? shifter adapter. Russ. Edit: Early B body trans.

Is the crank machined for a standard transmission? For the pilot bushing and depth? Russ.

On some of the Hurst shifters you have to push the handle down (while in neutral) to engage reverse. Russ.

73 DusterKid, So far we're just going by pictures. No telling who bolted the parts on the trans. If you're going to sell it, or keep it, you need to pop the side cover and look inside instead of guessing if it's an overdrive or not. Take a couple of pictures and post them, you'll have the...

Of course it's one to one when shifted to the 4th gear selection. Now back shift it to "3rd" and you might notice it's not under-driven but over-driven. Notice the 3/4 lever is pointing down and not up. Of course the 3/4 lever might have been installed upside down, if so make sure it points...

According to the shift linkage on the trans, it's an overdrive. Russ.

If that has the large shaft a-body mainshaft and extension housing, that's a good find all by itself being aluminum, unless it is an overdrive. Please explain further kind sir? Do you mean input mainshaft? Don't know what 'input mainshaft' means. I was talking about the output shaft...

Common mistake, no problem. Looking again at the picture, I think reverse lever is upside down also. If that has the large shaft a-body mainshaft and extension housing, that's a good find all by itself being aluminum, unless it is an overdrive. Russ.

No, the forward lever is 3/4, the next lever back is 1/2. Fourth gear is the input shaft, which sticks out the front of the transmission, unless it's an overdrive, then it's 3rd gear (final drive, 1-1 ratio). Russ.

1st and 2nd shift lever is upside down, it needs to be "up". If it were an overdrive, then the 3/4 lever should be "down". Russ.
