Yes, you buy and replace the whole module. I got mine from BJ's for $10 plus shipping.

So I popped it out to replace. Well, it comes out as a little module. I can see a replaceable bulb inside, but I can't open the module up (well, I could with a hammer!). So are you supposed to replace the whole module? If so, where do you get them? If not, how do you open the thing without busting it? Thanks, - -brad Tired of spam? Yahoo!

My 67 Wagoneer has an auto trans behind its Buick 350; how do I readily ID which trans it is? It has floor (console) shift if that helps.

Unless swapped out at some point, it is a nailhead TH400 with Dana/Spicer 20 transfercase (not to be confused with an AMC Model 20 axle) I have a "core" one (still functioned but I didn't drive it) in my pile of spare parts I'm selling. build your truck right the first time! _________________________________________________________________ On the road to retirement?

I'll check my later model shop manuals to see if the FSJ used a lighter model torqueflite behind the 258's. of course with jeeps there is always the possibility of someone swapping in a different trans... I put a th-350 in my 67 wag... :) john On Thu, 9 Feb 2006, Watry, Andrew (LNG-SFR) wrote: >-->thanks >--> >-->-----Original Message----- >-->From: john [mailto:john-at-superdawg.wagoneers.com] >-->Sent: Thursday, February 09, 2006 10:46 AM >-->To: Watry, Andrew (LNG-SFR) >-->Cc: full size jeep list >-->Subject: Re: fsj: how to ID 67 auto trans? >--> >--> >--> >-->it'll be a Turbo Hydramatic TH-400. >--> >-->john >--> >-->On Thu, 9 Feb 2006, Watry, Andrew (LNG-SFR) wrote: >--> >-->>-->My 67 Wagoneer has an auto trans behind its Buick 350; how do I >-->>-->readily ID which trans it is?
