Thread: 1963 LeSabre 3 Speed

    1963 LeSabre 3 Speed

    All,

    I have a 63 lesabre vert with a Borg Warner T89 and two questions.

    First, approximately how mush does the T89 weigh? I am trying to take it out while on my back and don't want to be found by archaeoligists three hundred years from now with a tranny on my chest.

    Second, I have been informed that this transmission is rare for this car, any feedback would be appreciated. Only information I could find was that this transmission was installed in trucks between 1957 and 1971.

    Thanks in advance!

    John

    You can use a tranny jack or rig something up with a floor jack, but with three speeds I just let them fall on my chest.
