Brass freeze plugs are the choice when rebuilding or replacing.

i concur. Our '56 Patrician's torsion level is off pointing at the driver's door, on pointing to the passanger door. Off to the left, on to the right.

It's O.K. up to 25 mph or so. You're probably right about the front seal ( leaves a trail down the street). I just put 2 quarts of fluid in. We just pulled it out of storage also. Fluid is O.K, not burnt.

Good Evening,
Our '56 Patrician's Ultramafic is leaking from the front and slipping in D. No slippage in reverse or low. Anybody have troubleshooting solutions? Thanks in advance!

You can also try Motorcycle fork oil. It comes in a wide variety of weights, so tuning the ride is easy!

A fellow Packardite would like to know how to reassemble a '48 door latch assembly. He sent me this picture of the parts. Anyone have any insight on this? I still have to look at my '48s door latch, but I figured I'd put this picture out there to see if anyone can help. Thanks and a huge hat tip to all!

22nd and 23rd series water pumps

Good Morning All,
A fellow Packardite (new to the fold) queried me about whether '48-'50 Packards require that the water pumps be packed with grease to keep them from leaking. This is a new one on me. Apparently someone told him that and he questioned me about it. Anyone ever heard of such a thing? I figure if the seal is shot, it's going to leak no matter what is put in it. Thoughts, abuse and head scratching welcome! I'll check service bulletins when I get a chance.

Thanks for the info. I've found one and purchased it. I was just curious about the backstory. I've hears they were an optional accessory available through dealers only. Word is they were to commemorate the Golden Anniversary of Packard.
