What types of frost plugs have you used to replace a failed one while the engine is in place? How well have they worked?

Hello all! I am still having hard shifting with my 3 speed trans. It takes some effort to shift out of first and into second. If I take too long to hit second, it grinds. Second to third is ok Third to second downshift is also difficult. This trans is just rebuilt. My first question is: is it...

If you happen to have a 833 or 745 transmission laying around, could you take a measurement for me? I trying to troubleshoot a problem and I am wondering if the input shaft is too long. I need the dimension from the transmission case face to the end of the input shaft. Try to be as accurate as...

Does someone have a template for the trunk mat for a 1966 Newport two door hardtop? I have to make the cutout for the spare tire holder. It is up under the package shelf. Location and diameter of the hole. Thanks

Seen at the scrap metal yard this week. It is really rusty anyway, but could have given up some parts.

I replaced the A745 3-speed in my 66 Newport. It is all hooked up and all the linkages and clutch adjusted. It behaves like the clutch is not disengaging. How would I break that loose? Start in gear and go? What do I check for? Thanks again!

On my 66 Newport, I have installed a newly rebuilt 745 transmission. I cleaned and lubed the yoke splines with some grease. I am meeting a lot of resistance trying to get the yoke to slide over the splines. The splines are engaged. I bumped up against what I think is the rear oil seal, and had...

I have taken this column apart years ago but I don't remember all the details. I don't want to break something! This is a standard 3 speed column shift. How do I get the shaft out of the lower bearing? Is it just a tight fit? I believe the top bearing has a snap ring on both sides of it.

It is time to replace the shock absorbers on my 1966 Newport with the standard suspension. I did a lot of reading on this forum and looked at the KYB site. Much of the info is a few years old so may need an update. I am looking for a smoothest and softest ride possible on gravel and bumpy...

Were the three or 4 speed transmissions painted at the factory for 1966? Were they engine color? Am asking for my American 1966 Newport.

The original owner of my 66 Newport intended to buy a Fury, but was persuaded to buy a Chrysler instead. The base price for the Newport was $3112. What was the base price for the Fury III 2 door with 383 2 BBL as the only option?

Here is the final installment of the base Chrysler. This is the "window sticker" for this car. Not many options. The fender tag is quite sparse. . The steering is manual. The brakes are manual too. Drums all around. But you did get the mighty 270 HP 383; with 2 BBL and single exhaust...

This is post number 3 about the base Chrysler. To continue.... Included is the illuminated ignition switch. It comes on with the parking lights. C pillar mounted interior lights. There are no other lights inside; nothing under the dash or ceiling. It is pretty dark in there. There is...

Further to my earlier post; The base Chrysler includes this equipment: Pedal dress up. Obviously there is no Torqueflight either. The transmission is a column shifted 3 speed with non-syncro first gear. A745. Carpet is included. No radio or clock either. Thankfully the heater is...

I own a 66 Newport with 4 options. It was interesting to me to see what you did get, but also what is not included in the standard basic car. I thought I would post this information for your interest. Here is my car. I am the second owner. It was in a barn for 25 years near Gaza Iowa. So...

Has anyone here dealt with Transmission Parts Distributors ?(Transmission Parts Distributors) Any problems?
