The shift linkage nut(inner) needs to be torqued to 12-16 ft lbs.
The valve body bolts are torqued to 10 ft lbs.
The pan gets torqued to 12-16 ft lbs. With the thinner than stock pan gaskets they are selling these days, I think 16 ft lbs is a bit much.

For those of you that care....The shift linkage nut(inner) needs to be torqued to 12-16 ft lbs. The valve body bolts are torqued to 10 ft lbs. The pan gets torqued to 12-16 ft lbs. With the thinner than stock pan gaskets they are selling these days, I think 16 ft lbs is a bit much. Also, there is no way to cause the check balls in the valve body to move from their intended position. One would need to split the valve body to accomplish that.

Just went out to my 65 Falcon, put in drive and no joy, checked fluid and empty again. Time to do this. Thanks for the video.

I bought the seal set from Summit. The tricky part of this job is getting it back together. First mistake I made was not getting the park paw linkage piece in place. Fixed that and then the shifter jammed. Fixed that and was about to button it up and found the kick down linkage jammed. Getting that properly aligned in the valve body was a bit tricky. Got the old '65 Mustang back together and it looks pretty oil tight for now.

Dang, how did I miss this video? I have a C-6 and will be doing this same thing. Nice tip on the valve body removal and handling cause of the check balls. Old video, but very relevant to a C-6 also. Cheers from Motown!

My 1967 Mustang C4 had a leaky filler tube. I replaced the pan gasket, the linkage seals. My filler tube was twisted up.

How do you position the top side of the shifter arm? I don't see where it's supposed to fit.

Do you have any videos about the c4 transmission kick down cable adjustment????

@classicsurvivor 9 лет назад

You should of mentioned the importance of torquing the valve body down to the proper inch pound value. People over-torque the screen and valve body values all the time. This pinches the valves inside the valve body and causes them to not be able to move like they should, and it shortens the life of the transmission drastically. Super important detail on valve bodies.

yup had to do this twice already on my 64 Galaxie. Only leaks when parked not running.

@adriannanavarro1032

Hi I recently bought a ford mustang 1970 with a leak in the transmission. We changed the oil filter, cleaned the oil pan, and installed a new gasket. It kept leaking so we bought a new gasket and it still leaks, any answers as to why?

@hughphillips67Mustang

What is the purpose, for lack of a better term.....for the "plug" to the left of the shifting device for? That is what seems to be leaking on mine. Can I take it out and thread tape it? And put it back in? Or is it a setting for something internal.

Great video guys!! Listen...I have a 65 Ford Galaxie with a 390 cid. Any way you can explain (through a video) how to change all the fluids on the vehicle?
