You should do a video as to how to do the regular maintenance Fordomatic transmission band adjustments.
Great idea! Will do next time I have a T-Bird in the shop.
It's not clear to me if you removed the tailshaft and then the middle part or do you need to remove the middle part before the tailshaft can come out. Or to ask a different way, is it possible to remove only the tailshaft without removing or disassembling any other parts of the transmission?
The tail shaft assembly is unbolted and slid back far enough to allow the case (middle part) to be dropped down and out/removed. Once the case is removed then and only then are you able to remove the tail shaft assembly.
@@crownvalleytrans Thanks
If this is the Willow Green 57 I think it is it was my fault that trans needs service. When I installed the engine and transmission into the car I only put 4 courts of fluid in the trans then started the engine to break-in the cam. I never added more fluid to the transmission because I forgot. So remember that you need a dedicated person to fill that transmission up quickly.
Hey my dad has a 1956 thunderbird and we are having transmission problems. I was wondering if you could tell me where the shop that did the transmission removal and rebuild? And how exactly did you remove the transmission? It’s hard to tell through the pictures.

@@crownvalleytrans thank you sir. I don’t think that’s going to do us any good lol. We live in Ohio. But thanks for responding to my comment and trying to help
@@crownvalleytrans is there a way you could send me a step by step like they did in the video? It would be very helpful. I can’t find any other video that take the transmission out in two pieces

Sorry Roy, all I do is transmissions.
What transmission is this?
3 speed Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission. www.hemmings.com/stories/article/ford-o-matic-transmission
@crownvalleytrans thank you. I have a 55 here, the other guys are saying this cant be done, did they all have the same trans?
@@Juandongduck Hi Jr. Yes, all three years came from the factory with a Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission. I've used this method for thirty years and was taught this method from individuals that were performing the same process in the 60's.
Awesome! This is the route I am going to take. Thanks again.
