Did you call Joe Morgan in New Hampshire?

Yes. I pretty well ran the traps on the usual suspects for CG-CH-CL series cars.

Too expensive to make...…..you may have a three speed in your future. I was quoted 3500 each twenty years ago if we made ten cluster gears for Pierce cars.

I need the 2nd--R sliding gear and a cluster gear for a 1931 CG. It is a one year only 4 speed. The CH and CL are 3 speed. Any leads would be appreciated. Al Kroemer

Is the 31 Chrysler CD8 trans the same?

Unfortunately the CG transmission is a one year one model only. So I'm having new gears cut.

We have what I consider a reasonable price to make both gears, so absent finding replacements, I'll go that way. Joe Morgan and others more knowledgeable than I am have told me the amount of machining and modifications required to fit the 3 speed makes that an uneconomical retrofit.

The 31 CD8 also used a four speed transmission.

Layout is very similar, but they are different. Other than some insignificant parts (like the drain plug) none of the CG p/ns are the same as the CD.

The folks at Classics & Exotics in Troy, MI rebuilt the transmission and had the gears cut.
