Re: Skidmore '67 C20
I installed new motor mounts "while I was already there", and they looked a little tired. It turned into a bit of a job, but it was worth it as the mounts were disintegrated.
Access to the bolts is pretty poor and I managed to lightly cross thread two bolts, which required running a tap through the threads. I should have cleaned them up before I tried to bolt them up the first time, but I was optimistic and rushing. It's always the little jobs that slow you down.
I also started addressing the TH400 leaks. Unfortunately, after dissembly I discovered that I didn't have the correct o ring for the speedo housing. It is surprising how difficult it is to get the right seals from the local parts shop. I'll need to go to the transmission shop and see if they can help. I also discovered that there was no shift selector seal in the trans... So someone did some "work" in the past.
