 +There are 4 different versions of OEM "pawl carriers"​ and 5 OEM versions of the "pawl carrier support"​ (I call this part "shift tower"​).

 This is the 1952-1953 carrier. \\ This is the 1952-1953 carrier. \\
 The thin area renders these unsuitable for 54> cases. The 1952-1953 cases used a bolt in stop (34625-52 in 1st post) that limited shifter shaft rotation. In 1954, that part was dropped and carrier rotation stop was moved to contact between carrier and retractors. In 1966, this was beefed up. More on that to come. \\ The thin area renders these unsuitable for 54> cases. The 1952-1953 cases used a bolt in stop (34625-52 in 1st post) that limited shifter shaft rotation.

   * Dr Dick: The rivets are actually precision pins that you peen both ends. There is no rivet head. Rivet was a terrible choice of word on my part. These pins are already installed in the trock tower. ​   * Dr Dick: The rivets are actually precision pins that you peen both ends. There is no rivet head.

 +Here is the 1977-1985 tower. Changed for clearance of the 1977 up shifter shaft that came in from the left. \\

 +And here is the old trock cast iron tower, by far the best shift fork control and never breaks. Best of both worlds. \\

 To this point, we have talked about each part (with the exception of the centering springs and the tower) and how it interacts with its mates. It's time to carry this a bit farther from the workbench. \\ To this point, we have talked about each part (with the exception of the centering springs and the tower) and how it interacts with its mates.
