Hi group..
Steve PM'ed me with this question..

Alex,
Thanks for the great info. I was wondering if you could answer a transmission question for me. With the transmission I have can I
1) Remove that drive line brake
2) Fabricate and bolt up a collar
3) Buy and bolt on that output shaft gear and be good

Or… do I have to get a carrier specific case and a different output shaft?
Thanks,
Stephen

I think with a tail shaft housing change and a fabbed up drive shaft he should be away..he shouldn't need the brake assembly housing..of am I wrong..?
Don't have my parts manuals anymore so can't remember if the brake assembly can be removed from the tail shaft and the housing assembly remain as is or not..and then go from there..

But then again I don't know exactly which transmission he has..

FORUM members...???
Input please..
(It is a '49+ FLAT HEAD..WE KNOW THAT ABOUT IT..)

Hello Steve

Welcome to the rusty old OD steel, musty smelling stinky MV collectors thing

, I hope your carrier project is everything you envision, If you need any help feel free to ask as always.

PS I have a CMP that is very homestick for its carrier friend as they were together for many years , gee maybe if your MVitus gets real bad we will have to send it south to warmer clime's so they can have a reunion , maybe you should talk to your better half `?

He will require the short output shaft (internal thread, not the big external thread) and the carrier specific ring that bolts to the rear of the std ford g/box housing. He will also require the long clutch release lever. Best way is to locate the whole box, with all the bits if he can.

OK I have the manuals and they are very detailed and have answered a lot of questions. It also seems very convenient to have all the original part numbers until you try and find new parts. For example are the large seals on either side of the Gear Box Coupling page 14 of the illustrated parts catalogue available to purchase new? Part numbers C01UC105387 and C011UC-105759 are what I am using as my examples. I get nothing when doing searches on every number I have tried so far. Is there a place to cross reference? Even on a web site like MAC’s they seem to be non-existent. Do you think a manual like

would be helpful? Thanks for any light you can shed.

Hi

I have had very good luck finding bearings, seals, and speedy-sleeves through Motion Industries https://www.motionindustries.com they have local dealers all over the US and Canada. If you can not find the seals by number they have size listings, also many of their dealers have collections of catalogs with listings by size.

Cheers Phil
