fordmerc Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 (edited) I need to work on my OD. (‘41 120) I have previously pulled engine, transmission and OD in one unit from above when engine was rebuilt and reinstallation went fine. Now, only the OD needs work. Is it reasonable to pull OD and transmission from below ? (I do have “instructions” in a Thompson Manual for “39-’48 Packards.) When I look at the geometry, it looks pretty shaky. I also reviewed the EconoDrive Training Book Edited May 2, 2021 by fordmerc Added source (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken_P Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 On the '37 120 (similar transmission, except cane shift and no overdrive), it's very easy to pull the transmission from below. With the cane shift, you have to remove the floorboard to pull the top of the transmission, then remove everything else from below. I imagine on a column shifted model, it might be easier. Also, with your all steel body, no floorboard to remove! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordmerc Posted May 11, 2021 Author Share Posted May 11, 2021 Another issue: do I have to remove the cross-member to get the trans/OD out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
