Title: transmission linkage problem ?????
Post by: dcorry on June 07, 2009, 09:19:00 PM
Anybody had the problem with the linkage bracket rounding  off on the c-3 automatic transmission? The bracket looks like it was pressed fit or soldered on to a rod coming out of the transmission.Spent all day under the car disassembling the transmission just to get it out.

Sorry I didn't see your post earlier, it is a splined shaft and yea, they can strip out. On derby cars we just spot weld them with it still in the trans.
