Re: '66 1500 slipping out of second gear
i would suggest finding an older junkyard to get a used trans for parts. there are still a few mom and pops style junk yards out there. those trans are still out there, but it will take some looking. i have a used one i would sell, but i am quite a distance from you.

Knotts, I don't know what the expense would be of having one cut at a shop. I was a machinist in a former life lol I know it could be done especially with today's cnc's, I used the good old manual lathes and mills. Ilvracn, that is an option but depending how far away ya are the shipping costs would probably negate the feasibility. What I've found isn't bad and a couple of light tack welds and reshaping would be a breeze. Since I wouldn't ha e to do any heavy welds it shouldn't heat up enough to cause a weak spot, thinking out loud here, which is painful at times lol...

i agree on shipping costs. i'm from atlantic iowa, south west corner, between omaha and des moines. i see you are from oregon, trans would have to be shipped on a freight truck.

Thanks George for the heads up. Sounds like a decent deal if I have to go that way. I haven't given up finding one locally yet. I just haven't turned over the right rock...
