The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Transmission Clutch release shaft, no grease fitting case

The 18-7006 cases for 32-34 did not have grease fittings nor did the shafts. I think Ford assumed there would be oil seepage in the bell housing area some of which would end in the bushings and shaft, not sure of this, just a hunch. During '35 sometime the "48" and later cases had the grease fittings.

Easy enough to drill and tap your case if you want. Paul J.
