Chaffee Transmission Questions

[Malcolm Towrie]

Thanks, Frank.

Bob, these trannies are in a Chaffee. Yes, your right, the reverse gear is in the transfer case. The tranny connects directly to the t/c with a short stub shaft so there is no room for a reverse-equipped Hydramatic.

That's great info about the cooler because we have some old M135's here at the museum I can steal parts from. I'll check them out and see how easy it's is to drop the pan. I may even pull a tranny because the outer torus has worn splines and I'd like to replace it too.
