It’s a 65. That’s why. 65 was a weird year across all platforms. Some got flanged axles, some didn’t. Some got ball and trunion, so didn’t, some got cable shifted, some weren’t. Some were cable shifted got older push button style cables, others didn’t. It’s like it was a eat up the inventory year
Bless their hearts but I keep finding that this car was assembled with whatever was laying around on the assembly line, late on a Friday afternoon
Or…. Instead of eating the cost in that one, just have your driveshaft cut and rebalanced. Cheaper, quicker.
Has to be from an A body. But that said. They can be found rather cheap.
Would you have to find a different tranny mount?
Actually, you are correct. I'd have to weld in a new cross-member to accommodate the mount shifting back 3 inches
Ouch forgot about thatActually, you are correct. I'd have to weld in a new cross-member to accommodate the mount shifting back 3 inches
Yea , I would talk to the transmission shop . That sucks!!
Ewwwww!!!!
Damn That sucks!
Could you make an adapter plate that goes from the cross member to the mount? Would be easier than cutting a new cross member in
I’m thinking go back to the trans shop, tell them to take that one back and rebuild your existing one. At no additional charge
I know this is off subject, but do you remember what street your Grandma lived ?
My family is from Canada.... Grandma got her greencard in 1944 (while living in Windsor)
Havent balanced one yet. The machinist claims the older driveshafts were never perfect, as in the yokes square to each other. When he squares them up, they are probably straighter than before he started.
I've lived in Windsor most of my life . Just curious !
Probably the best thing to do.
