Re: Transmission Question

If you are just moving it around the property yes remove the plugs to make it easier. Add a squirt of oil into the cylinders.

Re: Wobbly dist—hard to disgnose/fix?

It must have a bent or stuck shaft. It shouldn't be an expensive fix.

1&1/2"-2" is good for free play. Look for a crack while depressing and releasing the clutch peddle. You don't want the clutch to not work comming to a stop at an intersection, or pulling into your...

Re: help! clutch won‘t disengage…

Yes, with a crack things can move, but not enough to disengage the disk.

Re: Transmission pops out of third gear

I remember they were .006. Did it pop out of gear for the last owner?

Re: Throw out bearing grease fitting

The throwout bearing most likely is the type that will not take grease and the fitting is only there to lube the bearing collar. Why not leave it as is and just give it a few drops of heavy oil now...

Re: installing grease baffle on front wheels Model AA truck

I believe the drawing is the correct application. On Bob C's photo, how does the baffle even function? It is inside of the slinging grease from the bearing.
