    Unhappy

    i have a question for you guys out there. i'm considering putting an air bag suspension on my 55 buick. my question is do you think it will pose any problems w/ the dyna flow tranny?(because of the enclosed driveline) any help would be greatly appreciated.

    thanks!

    I have a 52 Special on Air ride. There are a few things you need to look for. First of all.... the Dynaflow hangs out from the bottom of the car (at least on my 52). Too low will cost you a transmission. I was having some problems with mine leaking tranny fluid. It seems that the rubber boot that covers where the shaft meets the tranny wasn't seating itself properly. Its kinda ghetto but I just used some rubber tape to make the seal tighter. It hasn't leaked yet and its been about 8 months. I would recommend a skid plate, just incase you come across a huge speed bump...

    Hope this helps.
