There’s a nack to once you figure it out it’s easy.

No your right it’s Jamed in the column. But if you place the shifter in neutral then look under the hood. You will see the two levers not inline. By moving one or the other it will be back in neutral. It takes some time and attempts to figure out what you need to do as a young lad it happened...

The mechanism gets worn from years of sliding action 1 to 2 gear then third to 2or first. You can improve it some what by making sure the bushings are tight and neutral is adjusted correctly. But there is a nack to shifting a worn out column. You have to exaggerate the shift pattern into a...

The man to talk to about 66 and 67 Hemi Satelites is a man named Jim Drane in St Petersburg Fl. Hemings Motors said that is official that he owns more 66 & 67 Hemi cars than anyone else in the world. That was many years ago too.

New designs have been around for ever. In the mid 70’s I had a Camero with a Beeber shifter. They also made Lightning Rods.

I have a complete Verti Gate for a 833. I’ve used them over 45 years. Never had an issue shifting one.

Thanks a picture paints a thousand words.

Yeah I’ve never had to remove the spring while the pedals were in the car. But done it several times when pedals were out to rebuild them. By the way, i found a easy way to reinstall it. Use a floor jack hook the spring on the front axle, hook the other end on the bar below the plate. Jack the...

large washer trick works if you can find enough of them. Install them with the pedal all the way out. When press the pedal in with washers in place, it should give you enough play to remove it

How about the release bearing tight on the bearing retainer due to heat? If you remove the last rod on the pedal linkage, does the fork move back and forth on the retainer? When it is hot.

I have a drawer full of all sizes of punches. Both brass and steel. From 4” to 24”.

Yeah thats what i meant. I just don’t like to type as much as you.

Agree sometimes the ears will get bent in so the C clips can’t be installed. I use a big vise and with a large drift knock them back apart.

I have to admit AJ posts are so long winded, I usually scroll on by.

Damn, it must be the leverage thing or you are a fricking gorilla! I’ve have had several Mr Gasket V-gates and hammered the hell out of them and never broke one. A call to Hurst might help you out.

Problem is you have to much play in the linkage and the pressure plate is not pushing far enough for the over center spring on the pedal to be pushed over center and return the pedal to the full out position.

Well when you do, I'll buy one.

Well if you find out how to buy one at a reasonable price. Please let me know. I have a A body complete Vert-gate shifter but I also need a boot.

I said the same thing first. But I guess my opinion doesn’t matter? Reuse the old ones! I guarantee I rebuilt more Muncie’s than most have ever seen.

Missing a flat washer on the end.

I know what you mean. But in my poorer days, I reused more rollers than I ever used new ones.

Do you have one of the old rollers to measure the diameter?

It appears it was a auto that someone changed to 4 speed.

Also the 340 cars

Look like .67-76 A body pedals.

And the Dana 44 has the same axle spline count and the clutch type Dana 44uses he same internals as the 8 3/4” Dana clutch type. Minus the thrust button holes in the spider gear cross shafts. But you can drill them. Done it a few times.

I use to frequent some of them. My back prevents me from doing much walking and lifting now days.

If you run across a early 27 spline 8.25 3.55 in a Dakota in your travels, I’d pay you to get it. I’m picking up a 8.25 2.25 this Saturday that I want to build.

I’m fixing to try it. Picking up a 2.25 open A body 8 1/4. I will see if a lower gear and SG will fit in it.

Which I am picking up a 2.25 8 1/4 but finding a SG for is proving to be difficult.
