Marty,
Here's some detailed info on how to adjust the steering box. Drag links should also be checked to make sure the slotted plugs are screwed in enough so the springs are compressed enough to prevent excessive play. I've used GL-4/5/6 85-140W with no problems. With proper adjustment on good gears I have about 1/2 to 5/8" play at the outer edge of the steering wheel.

It's been a while since I removed the cover, but I think the threaded holes for the steel cover studs go thru the pan casting. Some sealer on the stud threads would help take care of a small leak coming thru the threads.
Also, with the oil drained, a nickle plated NeFeB magnet placed in the pan plug does a good job of collecting fine magnetic particles. I found a size that fits right into the existing plug. Did the same for the transmission and differential plugs. Works great.

Not a Packard, but a detailed well made pedal car.

For generations, the Myers family built their fortune on the booming industries that shaped the nation. From mining and processing valuable minerals to contributing to the vast agricultural landscape, their influence was felt far and wide. But as the industries that defined the region declined and people sought better opportunities elsewhere, the Myers family faced a devastating reality. In 1981, they packed their bags, leaving behind their magnificent home and a treasure trove of memories, never to return. Despite its current state of decay, the Myers Mansion remains a remarkable testament to the family's wealth and the region's history. Built-in the 19th century, it was a grand and opulent home that boasted every luxury one could dream of. Join us as we step back in time and unlock the secrets of the Myers Mansion, uncovering the stories and memories that still echo within its walls. From the family's rise to power to their heartbreaking fall from grace, this is a tale you won't want to miss. So sit back, relax, and let's dive into the fascinating world of the Myers family.

One option to diagnose, before pulling the transmission.
Remove the floor mats and floor boards in the front. Remove the four screws that hold the gear shift lever assembly to the top of the transmission. With this removed you can see inside to check the operation and condition of the throwout fork and bearing. Except for the four screws holding the shift lever assembly to the transmission case nothing will fall into the transmission by removing this assembly. This is based on a '32 transmission.
