Re: anyone from Ma?? i want to get gears changed

Where in Massachusetts are ya ?

Cause if your near the Rhode Island border , there is a place called "Rhode Island Shaft" that does transmission , Driveshaft , And differential repairs . I learned of them back when I put a modern 5.0 into a 63 Galaxie , and my driveshaft came up 3" short . They custom fabricated me a new one for a reasonable price , and so I can recommend them .

Course , If your in western Ma. , , , Well then , , Your on your own

Good Luck with wherever you end up having it done , Oh yea , they're number is
