I read in Automotive Industries, that it was the Freon the Government pulled off the market so they had to switch to using Ammonia.

dons50pack, As far as pulling it out I would have to say I don't think you can just pull out the Shift Shaft. If it's like my 47 you have to remove the whole steering column with the shift shaft. Steering wheel comes off so you can disconnect the steering shaft and horn button.
Just curios why it came on like it did.

JRPackard37, not to hijack your link, but I also bought one of those cameras and it applied to work good when I first got it but took it out the other day (year or two later) and found the image was hard to use. Looked like the focus went out. No adjustments that I can see. Oh well it worked for what I original needed
Just a heads up!

Just curious, since most the ads say control of the AC is controlled by the Passenger. Where is the controls or control located and would this be the knob (control)?

Well tonight I figured I would tie up a couple of loose ends.

As always, a BIG THANKS goes out to Howard, I don't know where we would be without him. Yes I do LOST! So THANKS again!

Dell, it looks like I could use a TAIL AND STOP SOCKET, I tried my best but couldn't get them freed up. So PM me and let me know.

PTV, the photo shows how far I got before I gave up and pulled the whole column out. I was working away from home and didn't have a punch or hammer at the time, so I just took it all out. Plus when the spring popped out the end I think I lost the plug that goes in the end between the cotter pin and spring. If it had one?

Almost got everything cleaned up, so getting ready to put it all back together.

I don't know if this will help, the photos are from two different cars.

Well I did it again, I figure I would just pull the two IDLER LEVER To THE TRANSMISSION (Rod) and inspect the pivot points at the transmission for wear. The farthest one back came off pretty easy and seems like a tight fit. So I'm saying that one is good. Now the next one was a little difficult to remove. It turns out it has a rubber bushing that I pulled apart. None listed in Max Merritt nor Kanter, so the search goes on.

I would say it is possible but I wouldn't try it. The hardest part would be driving out the pin out of the SELECTOR (3.316). And mine was so gummed upped, I had the hardest time getting the SHAFT LEVERs off (3.328 & 3.329).

Thanks JW and Owen, after looking at the friction washers I was thinking maybe gasket material would work and I was willing to give it a try, so I made three. Then I got a text from Mark Graber and he said he had ordered some from Graingers and had a few left over that he could mail to me. So I just wanted to give a BIG shout out to Mark Graber to say THANK YOU!
Also thanks to all for your help, without you guys, I don't know where I would be.
