replacing speedo drive gear on O/D trans

Post by max71 »

I guess mine froze. When I go to replace it will oil come out of the gear box?

Only if you have oil in the tranny in the first place.
And if some leaks out, it's pretty easy to replenish.
Besides, few transmissions have failed from too frequent oil changes as far as I know.
In baseball, running into someone is apparently a "collision".
But doing the same thing in a car somehow makes it an "accident".

Didja ever get this done ?

At the Fullerton MG Swap Meet there was a $20.00 used tranny with the hard to find right angle speedo drive on it...
