I have been looking for alternatives to clearance a pilot bushing, using tools that I would have at home. I found one that will work great for me. Thought I would share this here, maybe it will help someone. I know they probably aren’t the highest quality, but for less than $20 and the limited...

All 7 bolts are in the housing and tight. I took a video of the bellhousing alignment. Looks like the side to side bore has an issue or am I looking at it wrong. Where do I go from here?

I have a centerforce DF clutch in my 67 Dart. How can I tell if the centerforce pressure plate is weak or not built correctly? Something has not been right since day 1. Things I have checked are: 1. Clutch pedal has 5 1/4" pin spread 2. Pedal measures 7" from carpet to top of pedal pad. 3. 14...

Should this clutch adjustment rod have this much angle?

Just thought I would share the bracket I made to mount the bearing retainer, so I can operate the clutch and check the air gap between disc and flywheel. I made sure the angle iron was flat and straight. Nothing special, but maybe it will help someone in the future.

Shouldn’t all the arms be touching the bearing?

I need some input from those of you that are or have used the McLeod Super Street Pro Clutch. My centerforce pressure plate has gotten very weak with less than 1000 miles on it. I am thinking about using the McLeod this time because I don't like the weights on the centerforce pressure plate.

I am reassembling my A833 non-OD. Should the rear bearing that goes into the tailshaft be pressed up against first gear or pressed on just enough to get the snap ring on the shaft? I am assuming it does press all the way up to first gear so the gears are tightly meshed, but need to be sure.

My A833 Non OD is difficult to shift into second gear at any speed much above idle. I rebuilt it and put in new 3rd and 4th gears, also new brass synchros on all 4 gears. Second gear isn't the greatest but isn't that bad I don't think, but I am no expert. I plan on replacing it now that I have...

Here is a link to the shifter boot that brewers has. Fit A body with pistol grip shifter. These have been needed for a long time. Brewer's Performance - Mopar A833 4-Speed Transmission and Component Specialists

I figured it out.

Soon I will be putting my engine back in. At the moment I am considering going with a different clutch disc. I have the centerforce dual friction setup. I think I went a little overboard with the clutch for what I am doing. My balance guy removed the weights from the pressure plate, with good...

My 4 speed ( non OD ) had some issues when I got it. I had to replace 3rd and 4th gear. Also replaced the brass stop rings and all bearings. It upshifts great, downshifts from 4th to to 3rd very good. When going from 3rd to 2nd seems like I have to slow way down to get it to go in. At what speed...

Which trans is the better one? Does one have an advantage over the other when comparing the ratios of the the gears? The earlier '67-'69 4 speeds had the 2.66 low first ( what I have in my car ) and the later had a 2.44 first with closer gear ratios. What are the advantages and disadvantages of...

My 67 Dart didn't come with the dash reverse indicator light. I am going to install one. I have all the wiring and need some guidance as to where to hook it up. Coming from the switch on the transmission ( 2 prong ), the harness runs up to the bulkhead connector block. There are 3 blades on the...

I am going to install the Lakewood bellhousing behind my small block. Does a starter adapter need to be used with this? It has the bearing retainer adapter ring also. What is a good way to secure it? I don't like the fact that it is just sitting there and could possibly vibrate out and fall...

I have read many times where the weights hang up on the Centerforce pressure plate. Has anyone here removed the weights? How did the clutch operate once you removed the weights compared to when they were on before?

I am curious what Hurst shifter handle fits comfortably in an A body. I have the factory Hurst non console handle at the moment. I do like the 72-74 B body pistol grip handles but not looking for that either. I have seen some use the super short Hurst handle, but again, not looking for that...

I know lots here have used the 71-74 B body pistol grip shifter handle in an A body, but has anyone tried the longer 70 B body pistol grip shifter in an A body. Also does anyone have pictures of it?

I just installed a new bronze pilot bushing in my crank. Should I put a little grease in it before the trans is installed ? I have also heard that I should not grease the input shaft splines, is this correct

I just rebuilt my 4 speed and got the car running today. I put it on jack stands to run through the gears and try it out. At first it was going through all the gears fine. Shifted smoothly. I put it on the ground to try all the gears with pressure on the drivetrain. Tried all the gears a couple...

I just rebuilt my 4 speed and need some gear oil for it. The oil in the picture is what Brewers performance sells for mopar 4 speeds. Anyone seen an oil with the same gl-4 rating at their local autoparts store. I would like to buy it locally if possible. It does not have to be the same brand as...

Almost done with the 4 speed build. Which way does the seal go inside of the front bearing retainer? I think it goes in metal side first but I am not positive. My books say nothing about how it goes in.

I am pretty sure I already know the answer to this but I need some other opinions on this first. I would like to be able to order this tomorrow if I need to. So I need some opinions tonight if possible. The ends where the thrust washers ride look pretty rough and the washers did also. What is...

I have the Non OD 4 speed apart. I know how to remove the output shaft bearing but the book doesn't specify how to put the bearing back on. It just says to put the shaft in a vice and slide the bearing on the shaft and put the tailshaft on and slide the snap ring into place. Doesn't say if I...

I need a speedo drive gear for my 4 speed. Will the 4 speed and automatic speedo gears interchange?

I am doing a 4 speed swap in my '67 Dart. I will add more detailed info later. Here are some pictures to view until then. http://s248.beta.photobucket.com/user/jaimie340/library/#/user/jaimie340/library/jaimie360/4%20speed%20swap?&_suid=136123978556308109145478041109

I am doing a 4 speed swap and would like some expert opinions form those of you who have 4 speed knowledge. Let me know if you see anything that might need attention! Click on the link to see pics on photobucket...

It has been a long time since I have run a straight shift. I have a 4 speed setup I am going to install over the winter and need a little info. The clutch setup that came with it is a Hays. It was in a running drivable vehicle when I got the setup. Have considered putting this clutch setup in...

How do I measure my flywheel to make sure exactly what I have. It does have a 10.5" clutch that was run on it. The measurement between the holes drilled around the edges is 11.25". Does this sound right for a 10.5" clutch?
