Re: '63 K NV4500 removal / reverse build thread
Here it is off of the workbench and back on the homemade trans jack. If I did this more often, I'd really think about investing in a real one. Had a couple interesting situations under the truck with this thing! After it was back in, I took a 4"x6" piece of 1/8" plate, drilled a few holes and closed up the trans tunnel that I cut on the first go round. More silicone of course! The Mr. Gasket shift boot was originally on the TC shifter. It helped cover more "real estate" over the trans shifter. Last pic is the slope that I had to work on. This is another thing I don't recommend when installing this transmission. Guess ya gotta run whatcha brung though! 4-1/2 quarts fo the Amsoil stuff that says right on the label "for NV4500" and we are good to go!
