[Farmall] 53 Chevy pick-up question

[E. John Puckett]

As has been mentioned, lubing the cable may help with the jumping 
around.  As to it being off all the time though, the size tires, or even 
the differential may have been changed in that length of time.  To 
correct this on the older rigs, you had to replace the speed gear on the 
end of the cable at the transmission.  To get the correct one, figure 
the error, then pull your old one and count the teeth.  Use the error 
percentage to figure how many teeth you need.  Finding correct one may 
be a problem, unfortunately.
