WillBilly53 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Was going to hookup the speedometer cable but noticed the Dynaflow seems to be missing a part? Could someone take a look at the photo and tell me if there is a threaded part that goes where I've indicated. And then the cable screws on to said part? Do I have the installation procedure correct in my head? And if so, any ideas where I might pick this part up? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest shadetree77 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Now they changed the Dynaflow somewhat between '52 and '53 so I don't know if this is exactly what yours should look like. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buick5563 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Ken Reeves might have one. (580) 855-2449Robert's pic looks like a later part also, so that is what you are looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillBilly53 Posted May 10, 2013 Author Share Posted May 10, 2013 Excellent! Yep, that seems to be the part, Robert, thank you for the photo. Thanks Leif for the detailed information and thank you Mike for the confirmation. My memory is a little swiss cheesy - I'll double check through my big vortex that is my garage of parts and make sure I didn't "used to" have it. If not I'll give Ken a try. Thanks again all!

WillBilly53 Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share Posted May 11, 2013 I found it! Do I need to lube it with any grease (or trans fluid?) or can I just install it dry? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif Holmberg Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Clean it and dip it in trans fluid and put it on place.There are trans fluid insaid the threaded hole that will "grease" it when driving the car. TexasJohn55,thanks for your consideration.As you have seen I have my limits with 1920s and mid 50s Buick:s.Leif in Sweden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
