Overdrive Transmission - Mopar Overdrive Conversion Kit
One of the most painstaking aspects of the rebuild is the installation of the roller bearings on the countershaft. Schultz uses thick wheel-bearing grease to stick them in place as shown. To ease the process of loading them into the case, he uses a cut-down countershaft that fits into the side-cover opening. Then he drives the actual countershaft (too long to go in from the side) into the case from the back to the front. As it passes through the case and gearsets, it pushes the temporary-use short countershaft out the front. All you four-speed rebuilders should dig this trick. View Related Article
