Re: 1937 120C Transmission Lock Up

An update: Yes, removing the front floorboard did allow me to remove the top of the transmission. What I found was that the lock-up only occurred when the transmission was placed in reverse. The three forward gears did shift. But, also what I found was that there was no gear oil in the transmission at all. I'm glad I didn't drive it much. The inside workings still looked new. The literature says to use SAE 90 gear oil in the winter and SAE160 in the summer. What do you recommend as to the gear oil for this transmission and where I might obtain it? Also, the literature says to fill it to fill level. i could not find any markings on the transmission to denote such a level. Is the transmission filled completely? Again, I thank each and everyone of you for your expertise.
