Still waiting for the trans to get shipped back so no big rush.  I still have the FOM dipstick, I just need the tube.  Hope the back gets better, thanks for your help.

I could not get into lo, (first gear) on the steering colum with the FMX on my 54. I did discover by holding the throttle to the floor (or just hold steady pressure on the gas pedal) it will stay in first for more than I need to get going. If i just take off at a normal speed it shifts out of lo at about 15 or 20 MPH.

I would look for a FOM pan and dipstick. will bolt right up. Gerry
