    Valves are slightly punched to hold in. Would I lightly scrape with blade @ recess to pick out of pocket. Hate to ruin , any one dealt with I'll take advice. Thanks Glassman

    Rear main or oil pan leak

    Thanks for the info. It had a buildup of oil around inside of Bell Housing. I was hoping it's the oil pan at back. I'm trying to get it on the road again. I'm going to just fix what I can and see where I'm at. Would like to drive it a while before major rebuild. Thanks everyone. Glassman

    Series 3 rear axle hub removal

    Thanks for the advice. I figured 4 legs would be better. Tried 3 it pulled off center. I was looking at buying a hydraulic puller. Afraid of using too much heat I can get carried away. I've tightened and banged. Is it best to heat the shaft, with torch or is propane enough?

    Series 3 rear axle hub removal

    Hi folks. I'm new to the club with a 64 GT model I've had for nearly 50 years. Here in Ohio we hold on to things. My issue is trying to get the rear hub off. I have the axle out and using a 2 point puller with small sledge. I haven't used heat yet but is it the only way? I wanted to...
