Hello Fellow Packard owners!
Recently, while servicing the chassis on the 54 Super Clipper, I noticed the passenger side housing of the differential, along with the shock and backing plate of Brakes was wet. After further investigation I discovered that there was a later, hairline crack the started under the outboard u clamp that mounts to the spring and ran along and up towards the pumpkin. Approximately 12" in length, it is a very fine crack. I have attached a picture with the crack highlighted with chalk. My question is, was the differential housing the same from 1952, across the models offered in that year? I have located 2 choices, one is off a Patrician, the other I believe is off a 300, both 1952. Your input would be greatly appreciated. With best regards, Mark Zimmer ![]()

Wow, problem is, the antenna is manual. Is a power antenna a stock item, and is there a replacement available?

Hello Packard Sleuths!
Getting ready to replace wiring harness on my 1954 Panama Super Clipper, but, there is a switch on the left side of the dash that I have no idea what it's function is. It does not show up one the owners manual and I'm stumped! Thanks for your help!

Wow, great inforation! Thank you so much! I acquired a NOS switch assembly, so this project will be challenging. Wonder if Merritt sells the tool? If not, I'll figure it out.
Thanks again. Cordially, Mark
