  1. I never took the time to read it just got pushed when needed.I guess owning it for years it was easier than reading what I could not do.try owning one rather than reading I suppose next you will say I would not be able to put a 58 385 in it WRONG

    Yes, a front and rear pump. Was dropped when Controlled Coupling Hydramatic came out in 1956 in Cadillac, Pontiac StarChief and Olds 98. Except that 1956 Pontiac 870 & 860 and Olds 88 used the old Hydro , and in 57 they all switched to the new trans. Also Roto can't be pushed started either. my 57 eldorado with 365 would start with a 30 mph then pusher back off worked many times over the years.

     

     

     

  3. you asked if 55 had the push button on cars no it was keyed.a funny thing in the early (55+) gm s if you just turned the switch off and not lock.someone if they knew it was easy to jump in turn the switch and bye bye car.the keys were another thing there was a limited number cut thus my 54 caddy key would start my brothers 55 chev convertible led to some head scratching when filling up 😀 back then it was easy to park back where it was

    Another theory I have is the deeper center dish is for the front since the axles is longer and sticks out of the rim and the shallower center dish is for the rear since the axle is shorter and doesn’t stick out of the rim at all.

    hate to bust your theory bubble but it has nothing to do with it a set was a set not 2 pair

  5. you do not need all the outlets? unless you have an electric brake controller for brakes on the trailer.also one is ground one is 12?volt power to trailer for?that leaves left right and taillights.the wiring is based on GM for L R T.you will find the yellow wire goes to the red post and the brown to green post and green to brown post.wired a ton in my time wiring trailers and plugs.this is if you are using a 7 for trailer.there is an easy way if you just want tail and left right.

  6. when I need to check a speaker I use a small battery (9 volt or less)has worked for me for almost 60 years.just touch the positive post while holding the other wire on the ground. you will hear a crackling sound do not hold on just touch.there are new updated vibrators available.there are radio repair shops that are qualified to  repair.
