Driveline parts advice 1963 Buick Riviera with Dynaflo

[rodneybeauchamp]

Hi all, 

wanting to replace the transmission mounting and front universal joint on my ‘63 Riviera fitted with the Dynaflo auto.

 

After looking on line and searching the forum posts, am still a bit confused by some of the listings given to try and order the correct parts.
 

These will be installed as part of an overhaul to correct a major transmission leak discovered when we did the Australian Buick Nationals in May.

 

Located in Australia means I can’t pop into Rock Auto or others and compare.

 

Many thanks in advance.

Rodney 😀😀😀😀😀

Same here although I'll be swapping to a ST-400 for my '63.

Confusion on Transmission Mount for the Dynaflow. I've come across sources in the past for a replacement but can't find in my folders at the moment. I do know Steele Rubber offers a vulcanizing service to your core. Cost is substantially more than the replacements I've seen online. The latter are cheap off-shore products?

Use HD Front U-Joint (No Moog)

 

 

Driveshaft Centre Support for '64 - up (63 is P/N 3R80-25 but appears obsolete):

I know there is a trans. mount for a newer Jeep that will work, but I can't find my notes as of the moment.

Is it Chinese, probably.

I had my dynaflow mount revulcanized by Steele.  Turn around was not that long, but obviously that will be different given your location.  

 

James at Best Offer Counts has a modified mount he claims is a workable replacement.
