    fixing hyd cylinder chrome

    the 1100 cost for re-chrome was just to strip off the old and re-chrome that's all. I will do all the repacking my self. I would love to just buy off the shelf chrome rod but this rod is not of a typical design and well yes I could make something work then I would have to come up with a good way...

    fixing hyd cylinder chrome

    thanks, guys for all your input. if the jb weld did fall off I not too worried about my hyd system as it old gear pumps and big old sloppy spools vales. yes, spray weld can flake off if not done right. there really 2 different processes one for doing the whole shaft and one for fixing spots...

    S7 euclid

    well got the tranks back into her and gave her a little test run and things all work fine and seem to run great. I do find it shifts a little hard into gear you can see it on the video. my ideal speed might be a little too hi it doesn't seem to come right down it's not snappy like some DD. after...

    well, I went ahead and made a new clutch piston rather than fixing the broken ear. so I hope the new clutch piston along with new sealing rings and the junk I took out of the oil holes gets me a fully working trans. I had to reassembly it for a second time as the first time I was having a...

I would say similar to the ones done back in the 60's but not the same. I sure he was just running an...

    Allison 3340 trans

    thanks, I ended up just taking all apart Sunday and staring back a square one didn't find anything that I had put in the wrong spot. things went back together way faster the second time. I just got to reassemble the torque converter and then I guess we see if I know what I was doing.
