Re: [Chrysler300] Fw: A466 Torqueflite gearshift cable adjustment

    In reply to your question below - I  have a suggestion - tell Greg you 
want your money back, and find someone who  actually understands these cast 
iron transmissions.  There are explicit  instructions in the service manual 
as to how to set and adjust the transmission  and if you follow them, step 
by step, you will do it successfully.  When I  had my G redone in 1998, the 
guy who put it together was put off when I told him  I wanted him to follow 
the manual step by step, and I wound up in the car on the  lift, holding 
buttons in while he did the cable, but I have never had a  problem and it has 
worked like a charm from the first shift back then to  today. 
 
    Telling you that "This is what happens  when these things get old" is 
hardly an answer.  Hell, they are all old,  and they still work.  Also, 
getting it "close" isn't something a real  professional would settle for.
 
    I'm not sure where you are located but  I'll bet there is a club member 
somewhere near you who has had a cast iron  transmission rebuilt, installed 
and/or adjusted successfully.  That would  be the person to get a referral 
from.  Strikes me that if this is the third  rebuild you have done on the 
transmission, somebody isn't doing something  right in any event.
 
 
Regards,

Any  suggestions out there as of what to say to Greg? I hope he has an open 
mind  because Melissa (my G), needs to be  fixed!!
