Which way was yours originally. Flipped like the picture, behind the lever or at the mentioned for 56 90 degree position. I could see the 90 degree and the 55 flipped working to loosen the nut if it wasn't square any time it hit the case. Both my trans are behind the lever. Don't recall seeing one in the 90 degree position.

Howard, the 90 degrees are wrong. I think they meant that if you are using a 1956 stop in a 55 trans it should be flopped upside down and then mounted 180 degree different. Good thing they show a picture. Both my 400 and Carib are mounted behind the lever as they should be. I did make sure the stop was squared off with the back of the trans rather than digging into the die-cast lever. There was a mention somewhere (SC??) about the position of the stop. I think that was done because they don't show a good pic of that in the reassembly of the 56 trans.
. Is that an original connecting pin in your trans picture??

I didn't realize this was a political forum. Is that the purpose?

I believe it is but would have to check to be sure. One of the end splits broke off the pin that was in my operating trans at some time. A few months ago I posted about finding a chunk of metal in the pan when getting ready to do Ross' mods and the pin about halfway out. I replaced the pin as you did. On mine it was with a 3/16 dia x 1/4 long shoulder screw and locknut. Attach file: ![]() ![]()
