- ford 4 speed shifter tear down
Episode 166 Manic Mechanic
We tear down two shifters to make one good one. We bought a parts shifter from eBay to repair the existing four speed shifter on our 1963 Galaxie. The Ford Galaxie 4 speed bench seat shifter is iconic for bare bones raw horse power and we wanted to return the old Battlescared Galaxia to that iconic look. For that we are using the 1962-1964 Fairlane Bench seat four-speed shifter from the folks at AutoKrafters.

This is why I love you 😍 and your channel, because you walk 🚶♂️ a repair step by step....thanks buddy...
You are very welcome Paul.
Thank you for documenting this.
You are welcome. In some respects it's dry as toast but it's something I think needed to be shown.
@@AutoRestoMod there will be someone who needs it.
Let's go team!
Woot
I had a T5 and it had a really tight shifter . It had a FO MO CO setup, but not an Autolight.
Thanks so much
Don't you hate it when something looks or seems like it will be so easy until you get started. You got a snag and tell yourself "it'll be a breeze if I can just get past this point" only for the next part gives you a problem too! It happens to us so at five point. At least you keep a pretty good composure. At least in camera! 😜 😆
Honestly the problem with the shifter saddle caused me to lose less composure but a lot more sweat lol.
Heat on tight parts does wonders.
Though I didn't mention it we did try heat on it.
How do you remove the reverse helper from shifter?
Around 4:35 where can I find that spring and washer new?
I don't know if it would work, but maybe soak the whole assembly in penetrating oil. It might release the rust that is holding it in.
We threw penetrating oil on it for a couple of days.. Video took a lot longer than what it takes for us to show it to you for sure lol. It's funny how the small parts will always seem to fight you bigger than the big stuff.
Video on setting up shifter?
Will do that whenever we go to final assembly
remember to rebuild the clutch pedal assembly the bushings are wack
All of that will be getting hit, we plan on doing the roller bushing conversion on this car.
I put ball bearings in there, $ 10 👍👍👍
Frankenstiens monster.
And getting all fancy taking pictures. You know you are old school. Pencil and paper diagrams
Honestly you caught me Steve, I was using a diagram of that 4 speed shifter (that I found on the Internet) when I put it back together lol.
@@AutoRestoMod dont blame you. Why reinvent the wheel (no pun intended)
Havent seen that type of shifter in almost 40 yrs. The shiny shifter looks alot like the shifter l still have from a '65 XL. UNFORTUNATELY donot have the car.
It's always a bummer when you get rid of the cool ones isn't it?
Cam + bigger hammer 🔨 = success?
Honestly Jon at this point I called "the guy".
