Does any body have the rear starter bracket used with the thm trans for sale if so how much. Also the bracket that holds the positive battery cable that goes to the starter does that bracket attach under the head bolts? Been a while since I took the motor apart and I just don't remember. Thanks.

I'm installing my rebuilt starter tommorow. I think the positive battery bracket sits in the middle between the starter bracket and the oil pan. Will try to get some pictures.

Hi Dave

Bracket for positive cable is attached with head bolts.

The rear bracket to support the th-400 trans starter—- is attached to one of the bolts on the oil pan and then the two bolts at the very rear of the starter 

The positive battery cable goes to the large bolt on the starter solenoid 

The positive cable has a bracket —-on the passenger side of the head bolts to prevent the cable from touching the hot exhaust manifold 

You can see the small bracket near the back of the head bolts in Matti’s photo 

Positive battery cable to head bolt bracket and then down to the starter solenoids large terminal 

New starter is always a nice thing to have 

Enjoy your special  Classic Antique Cadillac 

Enjoy

Here it is:

 

The main factor is the length of the ceramic insulator from the middle of the spark plug to the tip (where the spark happens)

Lower Front End Ball Joints

Posted by Logan Robb on May 11, 2023 at 9:04am 7 Comments

Good Morning all! 



I took the 64 into the shop to have some adjustments completed and in the process decided to have the lower ball joints replaced as was recommended the last time I had it in. I ordered the parts and came into the shop. They quoted me nearly $500 to replace those lower ball joints requiring nearly 4hrs of labor. Now this is a reputable shop and they know me by name here and they will continue to get my business. I am just questioning what on earth is…
