Re: 1964 a745 to 23 spline np435

Well, powerwagon54 called and got me set straight. Saved me the cost of a 23 spline transmission and shipping. I think I will likely be ordering a correct 10 spline unit from him shortly.

Re: broken 3 Speed shifter dissasembly?

Well, I finally got it out. That pin doesn't seem to want to ever come out. I ended up drilling holes in the little dimples where they attached the mount inside the steering wheel housing. I cut the shifter handle off the remains of the shift rod, ground away a bunch of ugly old weld where someone f...

1964 a745 to 23 spline np435

I'm about to ditch my a745, as the column shift mechanism broke. I believe this truck has the "universal" bellhousing that I'm reading should accept a 435, as well as having extra holes on the engine side for Slant Six or 318. I've got a good deal on a rebuilt 435 lined up but I need to figure out w...

broken 3 Speed shifter dissasembly?

Would anyone happen to know how to remove the 3 speed column shifter from the housing under the steering wheel? The 3 speed shifter in my truck broke, and a very nice guy an hour away offered to TIG weld it for me, but I need to remove it. I've got the wheel off, and I got the turn signal switch out...

Tag light removal?

Does anyone know the proper way to change the bulbs in a Town Panel or Town Wagon? I recently purchased a Town Panel, and I don't know how to remove these. The previous owner had a trailer hitch installed, and between that and the gas tank I can't really get to the back side. They don't seem to want...

Re: 1964 Power Wagon Town Panel - lowering options?

Climbing under it will be high on my list of things to do when it gets here. I bought it sight unseen so I hope it is in good shape.

1964 Power Wagon Town Panel - lowering options?

So I am the new owner of a 1964 Power Wagon Town Panel, and a 65 parts truck that I will be selling. I do not have the truck in my possession yet. I am having it shipped to me. I knew it was tall, but the guy I'm buying it from says it is 7' 4" tall, 88 inches. I park in a parking garage at work, it...
