Also is there a good way to prevent the orange paint from pealing without sanding and scratching up the chrome underneath it?

Should you elect to replace the axle, please keep in mind that the length is different from Sure-Grip rears to non Sure-Grips. You asked members of the list for a good replacement axle but did not specify whether the car has Sure-Grip or not.

Indeed, starting perhaps in '64 but definitely in effect in '65 and later years, axles are the SAME whether Sure-Grip or open rear. I had forgotten this, I am more used to 60 / 61 / 62 model-years. The part number for your 65 driveshaft is 2404228 ; same as 65 Plymouth Fury, and Dodge Polara. Same part number either side. Plenty of those in junkyards all over the place. My apologies for earlier disinformation.

Hi folks, Can anyone tell me what is in the 1961 Chrysler Service Manual Supplement, please? I somehow don't think that there was a 1960 supplement, and was wondering is there anything in it that refers to '60 Chryslers. Is it worth having, if one already has the 1960 Service Manual? Thanks in advance, Dave [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Message: 7 Date: Sat, 20 Apr 2002 06:44:38 -0500 From: "Jim Pristelski" <ajp002@xxxxxxx> Subject: RE: 1961 Chrysler Service Manual Supplement. Dave, I have both the 1960 manual and the 1961 supplement. I am currently restoring a 1961 Chrysler, but find that I always refer to the 1960 manual because it is much more complete. Until you asked the question, I never really thought about what of any importance was in the 1961 supp. You got my curiousity up, so I paged through it. The two new things that I saw are (1) the alternator charging system and (2) the three speed tranny with the shifter on the floor, both of which were introduced in 1961. Also, the 1961 supp has info on some accessories such as auto pilot (new version introduced in 1961?). The body section has an exploded view of the front clip showing the various bumper brackets which are different from 1960. This supp is barely 1/2 inch thick and has a lot of filler material on specs, lubrication, etc, which almost undoubtedly didn't change from 1960. If you don't need info on any of the above, you probably don't need the 1961 supp. Best regards, Jim -----Original Message----- From: David Agnew [mailto:Fnnutz@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, April 19, 2002 11:56 PM To: Chrysler300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [Chrysler300] 1961 Chrysler Service Manual Supplement.
