AJH Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 I am Looking for a transmission for my 17 Studebaker Six. Complete or parts. I would prefer a late unit with 3.7 gears but will consider any unit with a good case. Thank You. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
studeq Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 The 1917 Series 18 was the last year for the transmission to be mounted with the rear end. The 1918 cars had it mounted behind the engine. I am sure you know this but maybe some not familiar with Studebaker cars of this era may not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJH Posted May 9, 2015 Author Share Posted May 9, 2015 Yes Sir, that is correct. 1913 through 1917 were transaxle cars. Mine has been repaired in the past and figured it would be a good idea to have a spare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klnord Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Ajay, I have this assembly,if the pic works,. But do not know condition, or year, or what Studebaker model it came out of. Is this close to what your looking for?Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJH Posted May 14, 2015 Author Share Posted May 14, 2015 Kevin, That looks to be close enough. I will have to get you a casting number or other identifier to be sure. Please email with location and price. jhubbard@automuseum.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stude17 Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 This is a pre 1916 transaxle as it does not have the mounting points for the brake/hand brake shafts on the gearbox. It will fit but the brake equalisor set up is different so it would not be suitable for a 1916/1917 (Series 17 & 18) vehicle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJH Posted May 19, 2015 Author Share Posted May 19, 2015 Thank You Gentlemen. I need to climb under mine now and get the numbers. I will be in touch. Meanwhile the search continues. As I enjoy driving the Ole Buggy and hope to bring it to South Bend in 2017 to celebrate its Centenary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
